We're putting together a talented team to build the #1 training platform for Runners
We help everyday runners become outstanding by building an incredible app providing world-class training, coaching and community
for everyone, whether you're improving your 5k time or training for your first marathon.
We’re growing extremely fast! In November 2023 we closed a $6.5M funding round led by JamJar with participation from Eka Ventures,
Venrex and Creator Ventures. In 2024, we were selected by Apple as one of three global finalists for the iPhone app of the year,
reflecting the innovation and impact of what we’ve built & in 2025 we were acquired by Strava!
Our ambition is huge: to become the go-to global leading training platform for millions of runners everywhere. We’re growing with
purpose and looking for people who want to build something meaningful with lasting impact. With the recent acquisition by Strava
accelerating our journey, now is a really magical time to join. 🚀
In short, you'll be planning, producing, filming and editing a range of video content to bring the Runna brand to life. You will
work across a variety of areas, including filming and editing our weekly podcast, capturing races and events, producing social
content, creating in-app material, managing occasional live event broadcasts, and working with our amazing ambassadors and coaches
on shoot days. This role includes capturing and editing the content but also taking creative ownership of briefs and ensuring
consistent, high-quality output across all formats.
post-production enhancement.
Telling Stories: You have a talent for telling captivating stories through clear direction, compelling editing, and thoughtful
pacing. You understand how to make complex topics accessible and engaging.
Podcast Excellence: You understand podcast production from start to finish—guest prep, sound quality, narrative flow, and audience
engagement. You can work with talent to create authentic, compelling episodes.
Technical Proficiency: You're comfortable with audio production, video editing software, and can manage both pre-recorded and live
broadcast technical requirements.
Capturing Moments: You excel in finding the perfect angle, nailing the perfect settings, and crafting stunning compositions every
time, whether planned or on the fly.
Staying Organized: You plan clear and efficient shoots and recordings to streamline everyone's time whilst managing multiple
projects on the go, keeping all content tagged and stored effectively.
Working with Others: You are excited about the idea of teaming up with coaches, ambassadors, podcast guests, and other team
members to bring creative ideas to life.
Being Creative: You're always thinking of new ways to improve our visual content and keep our audience engaged, whether through
editing techniques, content formats, or storytelling approaches.
Flexible: Given a big part of your role will be to capture Runna events and races, we're looking for someone happy to travel and
flex their hours to evenings and weekends when needed. In practice, we expect that this will mean you will likely start later some
days and/or take your 'weekend' on a weekday to make this work. We'll ensure you're comfortable with hotels and travel
arrangements when this is needed.
We care more about you looking at the 'We're looking for someone that loves…' section and thinking 'Wow I was born to do this job'
than years of experience. That said, we do need you to have demonstrable experience producing video content in (ideally) a sports
setting, and we're particularly interested in candidates with podcast production experience. As part of the application process,
we'll expect you to send us a portfolio of video content that you've produced and ideally a podcast episode or series you've
worked on that reflects the type of content you will be producing in this role.
