You will define what great sales leadership looks like at Anthropic and build the infrastructure to develop it at scale.

You will work at the intersection of sales leadership, product, operations, and our field teams to translate complex AI concepts, sales processes, and systems into clear programs. This is a ground floor opportunity to architect a sales leader enablement function from scratch. The right person will combine deep sales methodology and coaching expertise with credibility in front of executives, program building instincts, and a bias toward measurable outcomes.
Key responsibilities
  • Design and build a scalable onboarding and ongoing development program for sales leadership
  • Roll out and reinforce a unified sales methodology across the global sales team, securing executive sponsorship and defining what is expected of each leadership level to drive adoption
  • Build the reinforcement system that embeds methodology and process into manager coaching cadences, deal reviews, pipeline inspection, and forecasting
  • Define and measure leading indicators of manager and team effectiveness
  • Partner with Product, Marketing, Operations, and other teams to ensure managers receive timely, well-tailored messaging, content, and training on new releases and evolving use cases
  • Serve as a trusted advisor to sales leadership on team productivity, coaching effectiveness, and leadership development
  • Leverage Claude and advanced technologies to deliver personalized, just-in-time training and scale the program beyond in-person engagement
Minimum qualifications
  • Direct experience rolling out and reinforcing a sales methodology across a distributed sales team, including training managers to coach to it
  • Program management experience, including building enablement programs from the ground up in a fast-growing, ambiguous environment
  • Strong presentation and facilitation skills, with experience delivering training or coaching in front of both managers and executives
Preferred qualifications
  • 8+ years of experience in sales enablement, sales leadership development, sales management, or a related customer-facing role within AI/ML or enterprise technology organizations
  • A track record of earning buy-in from senior sales leaders and frontline managers, and driving stakeholder alignment with executive audiences
  • Strong analytical skills with a data-driven approach to measuring ramp, productivity, and program effectiveness
  • Empathy for sellers and sales leaders, with an understanding of the demands of the role and a partnership-oriented approach to conflict and disagreement
  • A proactive, resourceful approach, combining strategic vision with a willingness to build and execute hands-on
  • Prior frontline sales management experience
  • Experience at an AI company or high-growth technology organization that has scaled a sales leadership team
  • Experience using or building applications on top of Claude or similar AI tools to automate and personalize training

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.

Your safety matters to us. To protect yourself from potential scams, remember that Anthropic recruiters only contact you from [redacted].com email addresses. In some cases, we may partner with vetted recruiting agencies who will identify themselves as working on behalf of Anthropic. Be cautious of emails from other domains. Legitimate Anthropic recruiters will never ask for money, fees, or banking information before your first day. If you're ever unsure about a communication, don't click any links-visit anthropic.com/careers directly for confirmed position openings.
