## Description

## About the role

Our Corporate Finance & Strategy team serves as a strategic partner to Anthropic's leadership, driving data-informed decisions that shape our company's future. We are seeking a professional to support Anthropic's M&A and strategic transaction activity. In this role, you will lead the financial due diligence of acquisition targets and own the Finance & Strategy view of each deal: forecasting the target's business, testing the assumptions behind the deal, and translating its impact into Anthropic's forecast and plan.

You will partner with a broad group of cross-functional stakeholders throughout the deal process, including Corporate Development, Accounting, R&D, People, and more. The role suits someone who has seen transactions from more than one vantage point, whether as an investor, a banker, or an operator. You will give leadership a clear view of what each deal means for Anthropic's financials, and build the models, frameworks, and playbooks that keep this work consistent from one transaction to the next, leveraging Claude as a core part of your toolkit.

## Key responsibilities

- Lead Finance & Strategy's financial due diligence on M&A and other strategic transactions: assess the target's historical performance and forecast, pressure-test the assumptions behind the deal, and surface the risks that matter for the decision

- Build the deal model and pro forma forecast for each transaction, and evaluate deal economics and structuring options

- Partner with Corporate Development on the deal case, Accounting on diligence findings and post-close integration, and the sponsoring business team on operating assumptions, carrying what you learn into the model

- Translate each deal's impact into Anthropic's forecast and plan, and present your analysis and recommendations to Finance leadership

- Build the templates, playbooks, and processes that make deal work repeatable, and use Claude to raise the rigor and pace of that work over time

## Minimum qualifications

- 7+ years of experience in M&A-related roles across investment banking, private equity, growth equity, venture capital, corporate development, or strategic finance

- Hands-on experience building acquisition models and pro forma forecasts from scratch, with mastery of how a transaction flows through the three financial statements

- Strong collaborator who builds trust quickly across large, cross-functional deal teams

- Clear, proactive communication, including experience presenting to Finance leadership

- Thrives in fast-paced, dynamic environments and navigates ambiguity with confidence

- Track record of building new processes, templates, and playbooks

- Passion for Anthropic's mission of building safe, beneficial AI

## Preferred qualifications

- MBA, CFA, or CPA

- Experience on both the investing / advisory and operating sides of transactions

- M&A experience at a public company, with an understanding of downstream reporting impacts

- Experience using Claude or similar AI tools to raise both the quality and the efficiency of your work

The annual compensation range for this role is $190,000-$240,000 USD.

## Logistics

- Minimum education: Bachelor’s degree or an equivalent combination of education, training, and/or experience

- Required field of study: A field relevant to the role as demonstrated through coursework, training, or professional experience

- Minimum years of experience: Years of experience required will correlate with the internal job level requirements for the position

- 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.
