Who this role is best for

Best suited to candidates with prior customer-facing or process-driven experience working in SaaS environments, particularly those comfortable with repetitive tasks and who can follow procedures closely. The role emphasizes remote work for U.S. candidates, with a focus on tiered support structures and clear communication.

Best fit for

  • Candidates with prior customer-facing or process-driven experience in SaaS environments
    — “0-2 years in any customer-facing or process-driven role (preferably in SaaS, but not required)”
  • Individuals who are detail-oriented and can recognize when a ticket requires escalation
    — “Recognize when a ticket needs product judgment or creative-tool troubleshooting, and route it to Tier 2 Support or Enterprise”

    — “Resolve high-volume, tickets across account access, billing, and plan questions for Free, Standard, and Pro and Max users”

Things to consider

  • The role is open to candidates in London and APAC, but the salary range is specified for U.S. candidates only
    — “the provided range is the expected salary for candidates in the U.S. Outside of those regions, there may be a change in the range”
  • Candidates must be prepared for potentially limited customization in their support approach
    — “Use existing macros, playbooks, and AI support layer suggestions to close tickets accurately and quickly”

How to stand out

  • Demonstrate initiative by identifying and suggesting improvements for recurring support questions
    — “Flag recurring questions that don't have a macro yet”
  • Showcase your ability to follow procedures precisely and avoid over-escalation
    — “The best people in this role follow the playbook precisely and know exactly when a ticket doesn't fit it”
  • Highlight your capacity to learn and understand the product quickly, even without prior creative experience
    — “Enough curiosity to spend a little time in the product or help docs before talking to us”
  • Emphasize your clear and accurate written communication skills, especially for process-driven tasks
    — “Clear, accurate written communication, especially on process-driven, checklist-style work”

About the role

Original posting from Runway Ml via Ashby

We are building AI to simulate the world through merging art and science.

We believe that world models are at the frontier of progress in artificial intelligence. Language models alone won’t solve the world’s hardest problems – robotics, disease, scientific discovery. Real progress requires models that experience the world and learn from their mistakes, the same way that humans do. And this kind of trial and error can be massively accelerated when done in simulation, rather than in the real world.

World models offer the most clear path to general-purpose simulation, changing how stories are told, how scientific progress is made and how the next frontiers of humanity are reached.

Our team consists of creative, open minded, caring and ambitious people who are determined to change the world. We aspire to continuously build impossible things and our ability to do so relies on building an incredible team. If you are driven to do the same, we'd love to hear from you.

ABOUT THE ROLE

*Open to hiring in London and APAC.

We're building a creative platform used by artists, filmmakers, and teams at some of the world's most recognized brands. Our support org handles everything from a five-minute billing question to a technical escalation, and we're building out a dedicated tier for the first kind so our more experienced specialists can focus on the second.

We're looking for a Support Representative who's accurate, fast, and comfortable following a process closely under volume. No creative or AI background required. We'll train you on the product.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

  • Resolve high-volume, tickets across account access, billing, and plan questions for Free, Standard, and Pro and Max users
  • Use existing macros, playbooks, and AI support layer suggestions to close tickets accurately and quickly
  • Recognize when a ticket needs product judgment or creative-tool troubleshooting, and route it to Tier 2 Support or Enterprise
  • Flag recurring questions that don't have a macro yet

WHAT YOU’LL NEED

  • Clear, accurate written communication, especially on process-driven, checklist-style work
  • Comfortable with repetitive, high-volume work without losing accuracy
  • Prior experience with tools like Zendesk, Notion, or Slack is a plus, not a requirement
  • 0-2 years in any customer-facing or process-driven role (preferably in SaaS, but not required)
  • Enough curiosity to spend a little time in the product or help docs before talking to us. No creative background needed, just evidence you looked

WHAT SETS GREAT CANDIDATES APART

The best people in this role follow the playbook precisely and know exactly when a ticket doesn't fit it. They don't force a wrong answer to hit volume, and they don't escalate everything out of caution either. They've put in enough time with Runway to have a real sense of what it does and who uses it, so a ticket that's slightly off-script doesn't stump them, even without a creative background. When they see the same question surface three times, they ask whether it should become a macro instead of just answering it a third time.

Runway strives to recruit and retain exceptional talent from diverse backgrounds while ensuring pay equity for our team. Our salary ranges are based on competitive market rates for our size, stage and industry, and salary is just one part of the overall compensation package we provide.

There are many factors that go into salary determinations, including relevant experience, skill level and qualifications assessed during the interview process, and maintaining internal equity with peers on the team. The range shared below is a general expectation for the function as posted, but we are also open to considering candidates who may be more or less experienced than outlined in the job description. In this case, we will communicate any updates in the expected salary range.

Lastly, the provided range is the expected salary for candidates in the U.S. Outside of those regions, there may be a change in the range, which again, will be communicated to candidates.
