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 Anthropic Institute

Anthropic is a public benefit corporation building some of the world’s most powerful artificial intelligence systems. That work yields unique insights but also creates unique responsibilities. The Anthropic Institute (TAI) is a new function within Anthropic that will work to advance the public conversation around AI.

The Anthropic Institute is comprised of research teams tackling some of AI’s most consequential societal challenges: the Frontier Red Team, which stress tests our systems against catastrophic risks; Societal Impacts, which studies how Claude is used by millions of people; and Economic Research, which tracks AI’s impact on people’s jobs and the larger economy.

The Institute’s mission is to reduce information asymmetries between Anthropic and the outside world, find and name the hard questions implied by powerful AI systems, and publish these findings so that policymakers, researchers, technology leaders, and the public can reckon with what’s here and what’s ahead.

About the Role

We are seeking an experienced communications professional to serve as a dedicated communications partner to the Head of Public Benefit. This is a rare opportunity to work alongside an executive leading some of the most consequential research of our time—work on the economic impacts of AI, the implications of self-improving systems, the changing offense and defense balance, and the societal effects of powerful AI on real people and communities.

This role sits at the intersection of executive communications, brand strategy, and portfolio management. You will be the single point of contact and dedicated communications advisor for Jack Clark, managing day-to-day communications requests and strategic engagements across his full portfolio. Working closely with the Institute's communications, policy, and research teams, you will ensure that the Institute's work is coordinated, consistent, and lands with the audiences it deserves—far beyond the AI and policy communities.

You will also lead the creation and execution of Jack's personal brand platform. Jack is one of the most prominent voices in AI—the founder of Import AI and a co-founder of Anthropic—and this role will involve shaping how he shows up across media, speaking engagements, written platforms, and public conversations as he leads this new chapter.

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.
