Job Description

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 seeks a highly skilled communicator to lead Anthropic’s communications in Japan. As our first communications hire in the region you will develop and drive effective communications campaigns that advance Anthropic's position in Japan. The role will report to our Corporate Communications lead in the US. The ideal candidate should be a highly strategic thinker with a proven track record of delivering exceptional results, have strong market knowledge and excellent media relations. They should be skilled at working with a wide-range of local and global stakeholders to help navigate fast-paced, complex environments.

Responsibilities:

  • Develop and execute communications strategies to elevate Anthropic's brand and effectively communicate our story and our momentum in Japan.
  • Craft messaging and talking points for major company announcements and milestones.
  • Build strong relationships with journalists and relevant influencers.
  • Partner cross-functionally with a wide range of teams including sales, marketing, legal, research, and policy.
  • Provide communications counsel to a wide range of stakeholders across the company including leadership.
  • Effectively plan for and manage communications risks.
  • Oversee executive interviews and speaking engagements.
  • Manage local agency relationships.

You may be a good fit if you:

  • Have 10+ years of experience working in communications, ideally at a high growth technology company in a senior in-house position.
  • Have a strong record of driving communications in Japan and are equally comfortable driving proactive communications and handling reactive issues.
  • Are excellent at media relations, and issues management and have a deep understanding of the political and regulatory landscape in Japan.
  • Are a clear and superb written and verbal communicator.
  • Have a strong track record of translating complex technical language into compelling messaging.
  • Enjoy working cross-functionally with a range of technical and non-technical teams.
  • Are excited to translate insights about AI for broader audiences, ranging from the tech press to the general public.
  • Are results-oriented, with a bias towards flexibility and impact.
  • Care about ensuring that transformative AI systems are developed safely.

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.

Come work with us!

Anthropic is a public benefit corporation headquartered in San Francisco. We offer competitive compensation and benefits, optional equity donation matching, generous vacation and parental leave, flexible working hours, and a lovely office space in which to collaborate with colleagues.
