Corporate Finance & Strategy, Strategic Transactions

Our Corporate Finance & Strategy team serves as a strategic partner to Anthropic's leadership, driving data-informed decisions that shape our company's future. We are seeking a professional to support Anthropic's M&A and strategic transaction activity. In this role, you will lead the financial due diligence of acquisition targets and own the Finance & Strategy view of each deal: forecasting the target's business, testing the assumptions behind the deal, and translating its impact into Anthropic's forecast and plan.

You'll partner with a broad group of cross-functional stakeholders throughout the deal process, including Corporate Development, Accounting, R&D, People, and more. The role suits someone who has seen transactions from more than one vantage point, whether as an investor, a banker, or an operator. You'll give leadership a clear view of what each deal means for Anthropic's financials, and build the models, frameworks, and playbooks that keep this work consistent from one transaction to the next, leveraging Claude as a core part of your toolkit.

Key responsibilities

• Lead Finance & Strategy's financial due diligence on M&A and other strategic transactions: assess the target's historical performance and forecast, pressure-test the assumptions behind the deal, and surface the risks that matter for the decision
• Build the deal model and pro forma forecast for each transaction, and evaluate deal economics and structuring options
• Partner with Corporate Development on the deal case, Accounting on diligence findings and post-close integration, and the sponsoring business team on operating assumptions, carrying what you learn into the model
• Translate each deal's impact into Anthropic's forecast and plan, and present your analysis and recommendations to Finance leadership
• Build the templates, playbooks, and processes that make deal work repeatable, and use Claude to raise the rigor and pace of that work over time
