Portfolio Activation Manager

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 a Portfolio Activation Manager on Anthropic's Private Equity team, you'll build and scale programs that drive AI adoption across private equity portfolio companies. Working closely with Tier 1 PE firms, you'll design and execute scaled enablement programs—webinar series, onboarding cohorts, and hands‑on workshops—that activate hundreds of portfolio companies with minimal human touch time.

You'll partner with Value Creation and Operating Partner teams at PE firms to understand portfolio needs, then build automated, repeatable programs that drive bottom‑up adoption of Claude products (Claude for Work, Claude Code, and API). This isn't a 1 : 1 customer success role—it's about designing systems and infrastructure that scale across entire portfolios, turning initial interest into active customers and engaged users.

This is a new role and function at Anthropic. You'll take the foundation that our Commercial and PE GTM leaders have built and turn it into a repeatable playbook. You should be passionate about building at the intersection of program design, automation, and executive stakeholder management.

Responsibilities

• Design and execute scaled activation programs (webinars, onboarding cohorts, office hours, executive events) that reach hundreds of portfolio companies across multiple PE firms
• Develop portfolio‑specific commercial strategies including preferred pricing models, contract terms, and growth initiatives aligned with PE firm objectives
• Own portfolio activation metrics including new customer acquisition, ARR growth, and product engagement across Claude for Work, Claude Code, and API
• Manage relationships with PE firm Operating Partners and Value Creation teams, delivering monthly business reviews and quarterly adoption reports
• Create enablement content, documentation, and training to help portfolio companies effectively utilize Claude products, and enable Account Executives to navigate PE portfolio dynamics
• Gather product feedback from portfolio companies and represent their needs to inform Anthropic's product roadmap and PE‑specific features
• Plan and execute portfolio‑focused events, campaigns, and promotions including on‑site executive summits and virtual programming
• Coordinate with Account Executives to route qualified leads from portfolio companies and ensure smooth handoffs
• Track and report on key metrics to measure the success and ROI of portfolio activation initiatives
• Continuously refine programs based on data, feedback, and portfolio company outcomes, building a repeatable playbook that scales across firms

Education requirements : We require at least a Bachelor's degree in a related field or equivalent experience.

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 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.

Anthropic is a public benefit corporation headquartered in San Francisco. We offer competitive compensation and benefits, optional equity donation matching, generous vacation and parental leave, flexible working hours, and a lovely office space in which to collaborate with colleagues.

As set forth in Anthropic’s Equal Employment Opportunity policy, we do not discriminate on the basis of any protected group status under any applicable law.
