Responsibilities

- Coordinate joint announcements and press with Anthropic Communications, managing review timelines and holding partner copy to Anthropic's messaging and brand standards
Requirements

- Have sourced and managed agencies or contractors across multiple regions, including scoping work, managing budgets, and holding quality standards

- Can build joint plans and value propositions that articulate clear business outcomes for customers
- Have defined success measures for a partner or channel program and used the results to change investment decisions
- Are skilled at tracking program performance in a CRM or equivalent system, and can turn that data into clear recommendations
