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
We are seeking an Incident & Crisis Management Lead to join Anthropic's Global Safety, Intelligence, and Security (GSIS) team. In this role, you will operationalize Anthropic's crisis management program, equipping the company to prevent, prepare for, respond to, and recover from incidents and crises that could impact our people, operations, or mission. The threat landscape is broad, spanning physical, supply chain, operational, reputational, and geopolitical disruption. While this role does not directly manage technology incidents (such as IT outages, disaster recovery, or engineering issues), you will ensure the right stakeholders are engaged whenever a threat crosses both physical and technical domains. This role sits at the intersection of emergency management, enterprise resilience, and executive communication. Working closely with the Enterprise Resilience Manager, you will lead incident and crisis exercises and real-world activations, maintain scalable response plans and playbooks, and build the capability of cross-functional teams to perform under pressure. You will be a visible, trusted partner across the organization, known for steady judgment, clear communication, and a relentless focus on continuous improvement. This is an individual contributor role with the opportunity to shape a function foundational to Anthropic's long-term resilience. As Anthropic scales globally, the stakes and complexity of our crisis management needs grow with it, and this role is central to meeting that challenge. This role carries an on-call requirement and after-hours availability. The Incident & Crisis Management Lead is expected to respond to threats as they arise, including evenings, weekends, and holidays.
Responsibilities
- Operationalize Anthropic's crisis management program, translating industry frameworks (NIMS/ICS, ISO 22361, ISO 22301) into response plans, playbooks, activation protocols, and governance structures that fit the organization
- Serve as Incident Commander, or provide direct support to the Incident Commander, during activations, leading and coordinating response teams in real time
- Design and facilitate exercises and tabletop simulations of increasing complexity to test plans, build team capability, and surface improvement opportunities across GSIS and cross-functional partners
- Lead after-action reviews following exercises and real-world incidents; track corrective actions to completion and fold lessons learned into future plans and training
- Partner with GSOC, Legal, People, Communications, IT Security, and Facilities to build coordinated crisis response capability across a broad range of threats
- Maintain and regularly validate Crisis Management Team rosters and activation contacts
- Monitor the threat environment for developments relevant to Anthropic's operations and advise leadership on emerging risks
- Support broader enterprise resilience initiatives, including business continuity and disaster recovery
- Advance the integration of AI tools into how we identify, respond to, and recover from threats
- Support the Enterprise Resilience Manager on special projects as needed
You May Be a Good Fit If You
- Have 8+ years of professional experience in emergency management, incident response, or crisis management
- Have led cross-functional response teams as Incident Commander in high-stress, rapidly evolving situations
- Hold a bachelor's degree in Emergency Management, Risk Management, Business Administration, or a related field, or bring equivalent practical experience
- Have designed and facilitated incident and crisis exercises across multiple levels of complexity, building scenarios that are realistic and instructive
- Communicate exceptionally well in writing and in person, including developing and delivering executive briefings during active incidents
- Build trusted partnerships quickly across a wide range of internal stakeholders
- Manage multiple active workstreams under time pressure with minimal oversight
- Thrive in fast-moving, ambiguous environments and bring a continuous improvement mindset to everything you build
- Are available for on-call support and flexible hours, including nights and weekends, during crisis events
- Are open to occasional international travel
Strong Candidates May Also Have
- Experience applying NIMS/ICS in a corporate or hybrid environment
- Experience in the technology sector, particularly supporting crisis management for cloud-native or AI-driven organizations
- Professional certifications such as CEM, CBCP, MBCI, or equivalent
- Working knowledge of ISO 22361, ISO 22301, and related resilience standards and frameworks
- Hands-on experience with crisis management platforms and mass notification tools (e.g., Everbridge, Veoci, OnSolve)
- A background in developing crisis communications strategies and stakeholder messaging frameworks
Deadline to apply: None. Applications will be received on a rolling basis. The annual compensation range for this role is listed below. For sales roles, the range provided is the role’s On Target Earnings ("OTE") range, meaning that the range includes both the sales commissions/sales bonuses target and annual base salary for the role.
Annual Salary
$180,000—$230,000 USD
Logistics
Minimum education: Bachelor’s degree or an equivalent combination of education, training, and/or experience
Required field of study: A field relevant to the role as demonstrated through coursework, training, or professional experience
Minimum years of experience: Years of experience required will correlate with the internal job level requirements for the position
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.
Your safety matters to us.

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.
Come work with us!
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.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Executive Management Jobs at Anthropic
Frame Your Leadership Around AI Safety
Anthropic's executive hiring centers on mission alignment with responsible AI development. Before applying, reframe your resume and cover letter to connect your management experience directly to policy, safety infrastructure, or scaling research organizations, not just general business outcomes.
Verify Your Role Qualifies as Specialty Occupation
USCIS requires H-1B roles to meet the specialty occupation standard. Executive Management positions can face scrutiny if duties read as general management. Work with your attorney to document that the role demands a specific degree field, not just any bachelor's degree.
Target Roles Where Anthropic Files LCAs Early
Search the DOL's LCA disclosure data for Anthropic's active filings before applying. This tells you which Executive Management job titles they're actively sponsoring, which strengthens your targeting and helps you match your application to roles already moving through the pipeline.
Use Migrate Mate to Identify Anthropic Openings
Anthropic posts Executive Management roles across multiple channels, and not all listings are flagged as visa-sponsoring. Browse Migrate Mate to filter specifically for Anthropic roles open to sponsored candidates, so you're applying where sponsorship is already confirmed.
Get Your E-3 or H-1B1 Documents in Order Early
If you're an Australian or Chilean or Singaporean national, Anthropic's sponsorship history covers E-3 and H-1B1 visa classifications. These require a certified Labor Condition Application before your consular appointment, so coordinate with your employer contact to start that DOL filing well in advance.
Negotiate Sponsorship Commitment Before Signing
Anthropic's offer letters for Executive Management roles don't always specify which visa category they'll file under. Before you sign, confirm in writing whether they'll pursue H-1B, E-3, or another classification, and whether premium processing is included to meet your start date.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Anthropic sponsor H-1B visas for Executive Managements?
Yes, Anthropic sponsors H-1B visas for Executive Management roles. The company has an active and consistent sponsorship track record for this function, including filings across multiple H-1B classifications. If you're targeting an executive-level role at Anthropic, H-1B sponsorship is a realistic path, though the annual lottery and specialty occupation requirements still apply.
How do I apply for Executive Management jobs at Anthropic?
Applications go through Anthropic's careers page, where Executive Management roles are listed by team and function. You can also find Anthropic's visa-sponsoring openings on Migrate Mate, which filters specifically for roles open to internationally sponsored candidates. Tailor your application to Anthropic's AI safety mission, and be explicit about your visa status and sponsorship needs early in the process.
Which visa types does Anthropic typically use for Executive Management roles?
Anthropic sponsors H-1B, H-1B1 visa, and E-3 visas for Executive Management positions. H-1B is the most broadly available classification for international candidates. H-1B1 is specific to Chilean and Singaporean nationals, while E-3 is available only to Australian citizens. All three require a certified Labor Condition Application filed with the DOL before the visa process can proceed.
What qualifications does Anthropic expect for Executive Management roles?
Anthropic's executive roles typically require deep domain expertise in a relevant field such as AI research, policy, legal, or technical operations, combined with demonstrated leadership at scale. For visa sponsorship purposes, your degree field should align directly with the role's core function. General management backgrounds without a connection to AI, safety, or research infrastructure are less likely to clear the specialty occupation standard USCIS applies.
How do I handle visa timing if I get an Executive Management offer from Anthropic?
Timeline depends on your current status and visa classification. E-3 and H-1B1 visa applications through consular processing typically resolve within a few weeks once the LCA is certified by the DOL, which can take up to seven business days. H-1B cap cases are subject to the annual April lottery with an October 1 start date, so if you're cap-subject, plan for a potential gap of several months between offer and start date.
