## Description

Anthropic's Integrity & Compliance (I&C) function is building the systems that let the company scale responsibly as its products reach more people, more enterprises, and more regulated industries.

The Governance & Oversight pillar is the operational and structural backbone of Integrity & Compliance. It owns the frameworks, policies, controls testing, training, GRC tooling, and reporting that hold the rest of the function together , and that allow Anthropic to demonstrate accountability to employees, customers, regulators, and the public as the company scales.

The Compliance Governance & Oversight Lead will set the strategy for how compliance governance works at Anthropic, own the systems and reporting that give leadership a clear line of sight into program health, and partner with the leads of other I&C pillars to ensure their work is supported by a coherent operating model.

Key responsibilities:

- Set the strategy for compliance governance and oversight at Anthropic, defining how policies, controls, training, and reporting come together into a coherent operating model across the I&C function

- Own the policy lifecycle end-to-end , drafting standards, approval workflows, version control, attestation, and accessibility , and ensure Anthropic's compliance policies are current, coherent, and demonstrably communicated

- Lead selection, implementation, and ongoing administration of the GRC platform that serves as the central system of record for I&C, including risk tracking, control documentation, issue management, and workflow

- Design and run the controls testing and monitoring program across all I&C pillars, partnering with pillar leads to verify controls are operating as intended and to surface gaps before they become issues

- Own the compliance training program, working with subject matter experts across I&C to develop, deliver, and evidence training that meets regulatory requirements and embeds compliance into how the company operates

- Drive issue management across the function , ensuring findings, exceptions, and remediation are documented, owned, escalated where needed, and driven to closure

- Build the metrics, dashboards, and reporting cadences that give the Head of I&C, the broader leadership team and Internal Audit a clear view of program health, key risks, and strategic priorities

- Prepare and present compliance reporting to leadership synthesizing inputs from across pillars into clear narratives

- Coordinate the function's responses to compliance-related due diligence requests from customers, partners, and investors

- Manage the I&C budget and vendor portfolio, providing the administrative foundation for the function's operations

- Build and develop the Governance & Oversight team as the pillar's scope and headcount grow, and embed a culture of practical, well-evidenced compliance across the company

Minimum qualifications:

- Significant experience in compliance, risk, internal audit, or a closely related field, including leadership of a compliance operations, governance, or oversight function

- Demonstrated track record building or substantially scaling a compliance program , policies, controls testing, training, GRC tooling, and reporting , end-to-end, ideally from an early stage

- Deep working knowledge of compliance program fundamentals: policy management, training, controls testing, issue management, and program reporting

- Experience selecting, implementing, and operating GRC technology platforms, and using technology to make compliance more effective and less burdensome for the wider organization

- Strong written and verbal communication, with the ability to translate substantive compliance requirements into operating processes that engineering, product, and go-to-market teams will actually adopt

Preferred qualifications:
