Brian’s extensive strategic and operational experience in the financial services, IT and InsurTech sectors make him the ideal leader to guide Blink through its next chapter.”

 

Brian Barter, Chief Executive Officer of Blink Parametric, said: “I am absolutely delighted to join the Blink team. Blink is in a rapid growth phase, with a fantastic set of global partners who are aligned with Blink in wanting to deliver innovative, brand-enhancing customer experiences and real value to customers at the moment it is needed.

Blink has built excellent foundations in recent years, including refining and enhancing its technology stack, service model and growing product portfolio. These foundations were built under Sid Mouncey’s leadership, and in his new role as Chief Commercial Officer, he will continue to play a key role in the team, staying close to partners to shape the growth of the business.
