Recruiter, GTM

About Anthropic

Anthropic’s mission is to create reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems. We want AI to be safe and beneficial for our users and for society as a whole. Our team is a quickly growing group of committed researchers, engineers, policy experts, and business leaders working together to build beneficial AI systems.

About the role

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.

Key responsibilities

Own full-cycle recruiting for GTM roles, from intake through offer and close, with a strong emphasis on candidate experience and stakeholder partnership

Build and maintain strategic relationships with hiring managers and leaders, serving as their primary partner on hiring and translating their goals into calibrated role requirements, must-have skills, and assessment criteria

Become an expert in the markets our GTM teams serve, understanding where the talent sits, what motivates it, and what distinguishes a strong candidate from a plausible one

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

Be open to non-traditional talent strategies, and enjoy working with hiring managers who are willing to experiment

Location-based hybrid policy: Currently, we expect all staff to be in one of our offices at least 25% of the time. However, some roles may require more time in our offices.

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 encourage you to apply even if you do not believe you meet every single qualification. Not all strong candidates will meet every single qualification as listed. Research shows that people who identify as being from underrepresented groups are more prone to experiencing imposter syndrome and doubting the strength of their candidacy, so we urge you not to exclude yourself prematurely and to submit an application if you're interested in this work. We think AI systems like the ones we're building have enormous social and ethical implications. We think this makes representation even more important, and we strive to include a range of diverse perspectives on our team.
