About the role

Recruiter Anthropic is looking for a talented and driven Recruiter to partner with our Go-To-Market teams. In this role, you'll help build the teams that bring safe, frontier AI to the organizations that depend on it, spanning Sales, Partnerships, Public Sector, and Beneficial Deployments. GTM is one of the fastest-growing parts of Anthropic, and the market for this talent is competitive and fast-moving. The people we hire need an unusual combination of commercial ability and genuine domain depth. You'll own full-cycle recruiting for a portfolio of GTM roles, act as a strategic partner and trusted advisor to hiring managers and leaders, and help shape how we assess commercial talent as we scale. You'll develop a real understanding of each hiring manager's goals, the markets they serve, and the profiles that succeed against them. Many of the roles you support will be new or evolving, and you'll have significant influence over interview loops, calibration practices, sourcing strategy, and how we talk about this work to candidates who have options. You'll also be one of the people candidates remember. For many, you'll be their first real window into what it's like to work here. This is an individual contributor role with meaningful autonomy. We expect you to run your searches independently, make judgment calls without waiting for direction, and be the person your hiring managers turn to first on anything talent-related. It's a strong fit for someone who is energized by a high bar, comfortable operating in ambiguity, and genuinely interested in the mission our GTM teams are selling.

  • Build and execute sourcing strategies for competitive, specialized commercial talent, including targeted outreach campaigns, market mapping, and cultivating talent pools that don't yet exist as pipelines
  • Advise GTM leaders on talent market conditions, compensation dynamics, pipeline health, and realistic timelines, including when a search needs to be reframed
  • Design and refine interview loops, intake practices, and assessment approaches for roles that are new or evolving, partnering with hiring managers to define what "good" looks like before the first candidate enters the process
  • Maintain an inclusive and consistent process, using structured interviews and calibrated criteria that reduce the influence of bias on hiring decisions
  • Partner with Recruiting Operations to use pipeline data and metrics to diagnose bottlenecks and inform resourcing decisions, process improvements, and candidate experience
  • Serve as a thought partner to hiring managers on organizational design questions, including what a team actually needs, how roles should be scoped, and where a hire will and won't solve the problem
  • Represent Anthropic's mission, culture, and approach to AI safety authentically to commercial candidates
  • You May Be a Good Fit If YouHave 5+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, including sourcing, assessing, and closing candidates, ideally with time in a high-growth technology company
  • Have recruited for commercial or Go-To-Market functions such as Sales, Customer Success, Solutions Architecture, Partnerships, or Marketing
  • Have a demonstrated ability to partner with and influence hiring managers and senior stakeholders, including pushing back when a search is mis-scoped

  • Have a passion for AI's potential to positively impact the world, along with a realistic assessment of its risks and limitations

  • Have a track record of building high-performing teams in a rapidly scaling environment

Visa sponsorship: We do sponsor visas! However, we aren't able to successfully sponsor visas for every role and every candidate. But if we make you an offer, we will make every reasonable effort to get you a visa, and we retain an immigration lawyer to help with this.

We think this makes representation even more important, and we strive to include a range of diverse perspectives on our team. Your safety matters to us.

In some cases, we may partner with vetted recruiting agencies who will identify themselves as working on behalf of Anthropic. Be cautious of emails from other domains.

How We're Different: We believe that the highest-impact AI research will be big science. At Anthropic we work as a single cohesive team on just a few large-scale research efforts. And we value impact — advancing our long-term goals of steerable, trustworthy AI — rather than work on smaller and more specific puzzles. We view AI research as an empirical science, which has as much in common with physics and biology as with traditional efforts in computer science. We're an extremely collaborative group, and we host frequent research discussions to ensure that we are pursuing the highest-impact work at any given time. As such, we greatly value communication skills. The easiest way to understand our research directions is to read our recent research. This research continues many of the directions our team worked on prior to Anthropic, including: GPT-3, Circuit-Based Interpretability, Multimodal Neurons

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
