beehiiv is where the world's best newsletters, podcasts, and digital products are built, grown, and distributed.
The platform combines email, podcast hosting, websites, community, and digital products — connected to a single audience and a single set of tools to publish, grow, and monetize.
As we approach $50M in annualized revenue and continue to grow almost 100% YoY, our rapidly growing product suite and incredibly strong brand position us for the next stage of hypergrowth.

This is an incredible opportunity to join a hyper-growth company as one of our Customer Support Specialists. This is a customer-facing role requiring relationship management skills and technical knowledge. You will work with business leaders to understand their needs and map beehiiv’s solutions to their goals. As a Customer Support Specialist, you will work with the customer throughout their entire lifecycle: from onboarding to ongoing support to renewal, while coordinating with internal teams to provide the best support possible. 

The ideal candidate is hands-on and results-oriented, with strong communication and problem-solving skills. We respect each other as individuals and know work is just one part of life; we want you to have the flexibility and support you need to achieve fulfillment in your personal and professional lives. 

To apply and be considered, please complete our Values Assessment Questionnaire here. We’ll review your responses alongside your qualifications and experience as part of the overall hiring process.

Please see below the regions/countries from which we cannot currently accept applications.

Ideally, you will have:

  • 3+ years of working in a similar support role
  • Prior experience working with Zendesk and other support tools
  • Excellent customer relationship management skills
  • Solid communication, listening, and writing skills
  • Technical problem-solving skills and resolves user issues with care
  • Strong organization skills: able to work independently with little direction when necessary
  • Genuine excitement about scaling a nascent platform
  • An ownership mentality
  • You've built something with AI and seen it through: prompts, workflows you refined, a repetitive task you automated away
  • Experience working at an email platform is a huge plus

What you’ll be responsible for:

  • Act as the main point of contact for any customer escalations to drive resolution in a timely, proactive manner
  • Be available to work nights, weekends, and holidays – looking to have someone who can work one weekend day per week
  • Become the customer advocate to drive cross-functional projects and initiatives across Sales, Product, and Support
  • Work diligently to unblock and assist users to achieve their desired outcome
  • Create and maintain thorough documentation and processes to both assist users and improve internal processes 
  • Build reusable assets — prompts, macros, documentation, small automations — that make the whole team faster, not just your own queue

Why this role might be for you:

  • Join a fast-growing new team that prioritizes velocity.
  • High impact and high visibility.
  • You're autonomous and excited about owning projects.
  • You want to join support that's being rebuilt around AI, not support that's bracing for it.
  • Excited about new challenges and executing creative solutions.

Why this role might not be for you:

  • Not a traditional 9-to-5 position.
  • Need to manage multiple priorities and stakeholders.
  • Must be comfortable with rapid iteration and frequent context switching.
  • AI fluency is not a nice-to-have; it's table stakes.
  • High expectations for both speed and quality.
