About The Position

Anthropic's Integrity & Compliance (I&C) function is building the systems that let us scale responsibly as our products reach more people, more enterprises, and more regulated industries. 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 Integrity and Compliance function and covers a range of compliance domain areas including anti-bribery, anti-corruption, employee conduct and third party management. As a member of the Corporate Compliance team, you'll be a core driver of a small, high-leverage team enhancing and executing on Anthropic's Corporate Compliance program. This is a generalist seat anchored by deep anti-bribery/anti-corruption expertise. You'll roll up your sleeves across the full Corporate Compliance remit — third-party risk, gifts & hospitality, conflicts of interest, outside business activities, the Code of Conduct, speak-up matters, and internal investigations — and be a subject-matter expert the business looks to on ABAC: setting the standards for third-party risk management, advising on government interactions and high-risk hospitality, and supporting Legal on compliance terms in commercial agreements. You'll also be a thought partner on how we use AI to run a modern compliance function. This is a builder's role at a company that takes integrity seriously and moves fast. We're looking for a pragmatic, solution-oriented problem-solver who operates comfortably in grey areas, brings a beginner's mind to the job, and holds the line — clearly and credibly — where it matters. You'll work directly with legal, policy, partnerships, and go-to-market teams across multiple regions, exercise independent judgment on novel questions, and help design the frameworks that enable Anthropic to scale responsibly.

Requirements

Substantial depth in anti-corruption / FCPA / third-party risk — gained in-house, at a law firm white-collar/compliance practice, and/or in government (DOJ, SEC, SFO, or similar)
Hands-on experience running or overseeing third-party due diligence end to end: scoping, screening/adverse media, questionnaires, risk analysis, and mitigation
Experience conducting internal investigations — scoping, evidence collection and review, witness interviews, findings memos, and remediation recommendations
Experience advising Legal and deal teams on anti-corruption and related compliance terms and risks in commercial agreements
Clear, practical writing and the ability to give business-usable advice
Sound, independent judgment in ambiguous, fast-moving situations — knowing when to align, when to push, and when to escalate

Nice To Haves

7+ years of relevant experience
Range across the broader corporate compliance portfolio (Gifts & Hospitality, Conflicts, Outside Business Activities, Code of Conduct, speak-up) and the curiosity to learn what you haven't done yet
High EQ — reads rooms and relationships well and earns trust quickly across stakeholders
Genuine interest in using AI tools to do compliance work better
Experience standing up or maturing a compliance program at a high-growth or technology company
International experience — advising on market entry, partner/reseller programs, or government engagement outside the U.S.
Significant first-chair internal investigations experience, including privileged investigations and presenting findings to senior leadership or a board/audit committee
Familiarity with sanctions/export, political-law, or human-rights/supply-chain risk management (adjacent areas this role will touch)
