Corporate Compliance Manager

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

As our Corporate Compliance Manager, you will have day-to-day responsibility for the development and management of our developing corporate compliance program. Our global compliance program is bespoke, reflecting our unique mission and position as one of the leading AI labs operating on the frontier. Our Corporate Compliance program comprises a key pillar of our overall compliance program and covers a range of compliance domain areas including anti-bribery, anti-corruption, trade sanctions, export control, employee conduct, and third-party management. In carrying out this role, you will coordinate cross-functionally and work collaboratively with many internal stakeholder teams.

Responsibilities:

• Lead Anthropic’s developing corporate compliance program and manage our corporate compliance risk 
• Build corporate compliance programs including for areas such as anti-bribery, anti-corruption, trade sanctions, export control, employee conduct, whistleblower and third party management
• Manage reporting of corporate compliance risk to leadership, and effectively communicate corporate compliance related topics to cross-functional stakeholders
• Set corporate compliance-related policies, communication and training strategy to ensure employees understand the program
• Partner with People and Legal teams to enhance confidential reporting structures and investigation practices
• Of course, this is just a sample of the kinds of work this role will require! You should assume that your role will encompass other tasks, too, and that your job duties and responsibilities may change from time to time at Anthropic's discretion, or otherwise applicable with local law

You May Be A Good Fit If You:

• Have 7-10 years of experience in corporate compliance functions
• Possess broad and deep experience designing, implementing, integrating, and managing corporate compliance programs in the areas of anti-bribery, anti-corruption, trade sanctions, export control, employee conduct and third party management
• Are humble, thoughtful, exercise sound judgment and operate at the highest level of integrity 
• Are strategic, flexible, agile and solution-oriented
• Possess excellent communication skills including an ability to convey a compelling vision for corporate compliance, and get stakeholder buy-in in a manner that results in enduring change and ongoing accountability

Strong Candidates May Have:

• Experience in at least one hyper-scaling global tech environments
• Prior experience in a Big 4 or other compliance consulting/advisory professional services firm
• A deep commitment to Anthropic’s vision, mission and values

Role-specific policy: For this role, we expect all staff to be able to work from our San Francisco, New York or Washington, D.C. office at least 3 days a week, though we encourage you to apply even if you might need some flexibility for an interim period of time.

The expected salary range for this position is:

Annual Salary:$255,000—$270,000 USD

Logistics

• Education requirements: We require at least a Bachelor's degree in a related field or equivalent experience.
• 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.

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, Scaling Laws, AI & Compute, Concrete Problems in AI Safety, and Learning from Human Preferences.
