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

As the Beneficial Deployments Marketing Lead at Anthropic, you will be the strategic architect of our social impact marketing efforts, positioning Claude as the trusted AI partner for global nonprofits, higher education institutions, life sciences researchers, and organizations focused on public health and economic mobility. This is a pivotal role that requires deep understanding of the social impact ecosystem combined with the ability to craft compelling narratives around AI's potential to benefit underserved communities worldwide.

You'll serve as the dedicated marketing interface for our Beneficial Deployments team—a large, cross-functional team dedicated to working to ensure AI benefits reach communities that need it most. Working closely with product, partnerships, sales, and communications teams, you'll bring partnership launches, features, and impact stories to market while ensuring cohesive messaging across diverse, mission-driven verticals and audiences.

This role demands someone who can set vision and strategy while being hands-on with execution—from launching product capabilities like Claude for Nonprofits and sector-specific MCP integrations, to quarterbacking demand generation campaigns that drive adoption across grantmaker organizations, operating nonprofits, research institutions, and beneficial deployments in emerging markets. Working at the intersection of AI ethics, global development, and growth marketing, you'll help shape industry conversations around responsible AI deployment while driving measurable pipeline and impact results.

This is an opportunity to define how AI reaches and benefits the communities that need it most—supporting our ambitious reach and impact goals.

Responsibilities:

Develop and execute comprehensive marketing strategy for Beneficial Deployments across key verticals, with global remit: nonprofits, higher education, life sciences/public health, and economic mobility

Lead go-to-market for product and solution launches including sector-specific SKUs (e.g., Claude for Nonprofits), relevant MCP integrations (LMS platforms, nonprofit, scientific research tools, etc.), and accessibility features
Partner with communications on executive thought leadership regarding AI's potential to benefit underserved communities, including flagship announcements in the context of key initiatives such as Claude for Life Sciences and Claude for Global Health
Drive thought leadership initiatives including impact reports and case studies that quantify Claude's real-world benefit (e.g., SROI measurement)
Design and execute demand generation campaigns for scaled programs including AI for Science grants, nonprofit accelerator cohorts, and grantmaker partnership programs
Identify and prioritize key conferences across social impact, global health, education, and nonprofit sectors and coordinate strategic presence and speaking opportunities
Write and refine copy for solutions pages, campaign materials, and partner-facing content across segments
Partner with design on visual assets that resonate with mission-driven audiences across US and global markets
Work with our integrated campaigns and social team on Beneficial Deployments-related content calendar and posts that highlight impact stories and partnership announcements
Build and maintain tracking infrastructure to measure campaign performance across channels (e.g., nonprofit verification flows, partner referrals, cohort conversions)
Enable sales and partnerships teams with enablement materials, outbound campaigns, and pipeline-driving initiatives for nonprofit enterprise accounts and higher education institutions

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.
