Account Executive, Mid Market - UKI
— Dublin, United StatesAbout 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.
As a Mid Market Account Executive at Anthropic, you'll drive adoption of safe, frontier AI across EMEA — selling into companies of roughly 500 to 2,500 employees, some already building with AI and others just beginning to adopt it. You'll bring a consultative sales approach to a wide range of buyers, from engineering and product leaders evaluating the technology to operations and commercial leaders focused on measurable ROI. In close partnership with GTM, product, and marketing, you'll help sharpen our value proposition, sales motion, and positioning for the mid-market.
The ideal candidate is energised by meeting customers wherever they are on the AI adoption curve — across industries, company types, and levels of technical maturity. You'll build consensus among diverse stakeholders and execute strategies that drive sustainable, responsible adoption of Anthropic's technology.
About Anthropic
Anthropic is an AI safety and research company working to build reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems. We want AI to be safe and beneficial for our customers and for society as a whole. Our interdisciplinary team has experience across ML, physics, policy, business, and product.
Responsibilities
- Drive new business revenue by navigating complex organisations to reach decision-makers and educate them on practical AI applications
- Execute across a range of buying motions — from fast, product-led technical evaluations to multi-stakeholder procurement — to exceed revenue quota
- Identify use cases across product, engineering, and operational functions, and collaborate cross-functionally to position Claude as a practical solution
- Build consensus among engineering and product leaders, C-suite executives, IT, operations, and procurement teams around AI adoption
- Gather customer feedback to inform product roadmaps and sharpen value propositions for mid-market organisations
- Refine our mid-market sales methodology by feeding learnings into playbooks and optimising processes across a range of cycle lengths and buyer types
You may be a good fit if you have
- 8+ years of B2B software sales experience, with 5+ years closing in mid-market or enterprise accounts
- Experience selling into the mid-market across any sector — SaaS, infrastructure, vertical software, financial services, healthcare, manufacturing, or otherwise. We care about the selling muscle and the buyer complexity you've handled, not the specific industry
- Track record of closing $100K–$5M deals across cycle lengths ranging from weeks (product-led, technical buyers) to quarters (consensus-driven procurement)
- Proven ability to navigate complex procurement processes and build consensus among diverse stakeholder groups
- A consultative selling approach that meets buyers where they are — going deep with technical evaluators and translating to business outcomes with commercial stakeholders
- History of exceeding quota while managing a mixed book of fast-moving and complex accounts
- Strong communication skills, with range to engage audiences from technical teams to C-level executives
- Credibility with technical stakeholders — you've sold to engineering or IT leaders, held your own in a technical evaluation, and partnered closely with solutions engineering without hiding behind them
- The ability to articulate ROI frameworks and demonstrate measurable business outcomes
- A passion for AI and commitment to its safe, responsible deployment
- Comfort building in ambiguity — this is an early GTM team in EMEA and the motion is still being shaped. You'll help shape it

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.

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.
