Policy Programs & Partnerships, Global Impact

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's mission is to ensure the world safely makes the transition through transformative AI. That only works if the benefits of frontier AI reach the majority of the world's population — not as an afterthought, but on the same level and with the same agency as anywhere else. Delivering on that in emerging markets takes more than government relations. It takes a coalition: governments, civil-society, NGO partners, multilateral institutions, and local implementers. We're hiring a Policy Programs and Partnerships Manager to build and work with these stakeholders in developing markets. In this role, you will engage with governments directly; leading meetings with senior officials, shaping policy positions, representing Anthropic in regulatory conversations. You will also build the partnership portfolio that turns policy intent into delivered impact: identifying, structuring, and managing relationships with civil-society organizations, multilateral bodies, foundations, and in-country implementers. You'll work closely with Public Policy, Beneficial Deployments, Commercial and GTM teams, Communications, and Legal. What you'll do: Government and policy Lead meetings with senior government officials, regulators, and multilateral bodies in priority markets — representing Anthropic independently. Own a set of priority-market government relationships from first meeting through to agreement and delivery. Partnerships Develop strategy for engagement with multilateral institutions (UN agencies, development banks, regional bodies) on AI access, safety, and development. Build and manage a portfolio of civil-society, foundation and other regional partnerships and engagements; identifying the right organizations, structuring the collaboration, and working on the implementation plans. Design and stand up joint programs with partners: scope, deliverables, governance, and measurement. Program execution Develop key initiatives as part of the Global Impact work-stream plan and drive execution across a globally distributed team. Contribute to Anthropic's presence at major multilateral summits and regional convenings. You may be a good fit if you: Have 10+ years in international policy, development, diplomacy, or partnerships with clear evidence of operating internationally, not just advising on it. Have personally represented an organization to ministers, directors-general, or equivalent senior officials. Have built and managed partnerships with civil-society organizations, multilateral institutions, or foundations. Have worked directly with governments and implementing partners in emerging markets to drive impact. Combine external presence with operational rigor. Have high tolerance for ambiguity and operate with high autonomy across time zones. Strong candidates may also have: Experience at a multilateral institution (UN system, development bank, regional body), a major foundation or international NGO, a foreign ministry, or the international/government-affairs function of a technology company. Substantive familiarity with AI policy topics including data sovereignty, compute access, local-language models, AI-for-development. A track record structuring multi-party coalitions or consortiums where government, civil society, and private sector had to work together. Working proficiency in a language relevant to priority markets. Experience inside a fast-growing technology company and comfort with the pace that comes with it.
