About the role
We're hiring a strategic advisor on our Central Policy team. This is an individual contributor role at the strategic heart of Anthropic's policy function - designed for an operator who wants to drive clarity on Anthropic's most consequential policy positions, partner with cross-functional peers, and be deployed as a strategic resource across fast-moving policy work. The Central Policy team sits at the operational heart of Anthropic's policy function - distinct from government relations and communications, but essential to enabling both. This role is designed to complement our existing Strategic Advisory capacity, which owns the documentation, translation, and deployment of Anthropic's positions so that external-facing teams can use them. You'll bring experience and judgment into the room, hold responsibility for a portfolio of strategically important positions, and partner as a peer with leaders across the policy, legal, comms, and product policy functions. The ideal candidate is effective across multiple stakeholders even through substantive disagreement, prioritizes closure over deliberation, and organized and process-focused but able to operate in ambiguity. Successful candidates will have experience building structure where none exists, including under unclear ownership and shifting priorities. We prize doers willing to do the work directly, no matter how small or large. Strategic and systems thinkers that understand how individual positions and engagements fit together across the broader policy landscape are encouraged to apply. This role offers a rare opportunity to shape Anthropic's policy voice across the most consequential debates in AI governance, while operating with the pace, pragmatism, and service orientation of a top-tier public affairs function.
