๐Ÿš€ About Borderless

At Borderless, weโ€™re building a world where borders are no longer barriers - where anyone can move anywhere, seamlessly and safely.

Founded in 2023, weโ€™ve already helped 600+ UK businesses and 15,000+ individuals navigate the complexity of immigration.

Powered by technology, and supported by an expert team, our platform removes the friction of Home Office compliance, visa processing and sponsor licence applications, making immigration faster, simpler and more accessible for everyone.

Backed by Entrepreneur First and Backed.VC, weโ€™re scaling fast and in 2026 expanding into new sectors and markets to further accelerate our growth.

๐ŸŽฏ Role: Director of Customer Success

Why this role matters

As Borderless scales our digital immigration platform across the UK to serve tens of thousands of SMBs, this role will be critical in building a modern, scalable Customer Success function that balances automation with high trust, and product-led experiences with human support.

Youโ€™ll own the end-to-end post-sales customer experience, ensuring customers successfully navigate a time-sensitive, regulated immigration process while driving retention, expansion, and long-term value.
