About 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.

About the role
We are looking for a customer marketing leader to build and scale our customer marketing function for the Startups segment across EMEA. In this role, you'll craft compelling founder and developer success stories, design co-marketing programs with high-growth startups, and orchestrate key moments that deepen relationships with technical leaders at our most innovative startup customers across European markets. You'll work at the intersection of customer storytelling and startup ecosystem engagement—helping founders articulate their AI-powered success stories while creating authentic experiences that drive advocacy, expansion, and community growth across the region.

The ideal candidate brings deep experience in B2B customer marketing within EMEA, with a strong affinity for the startup ecosystem and a proven track record of building customer advocacy programs from the ground up. You'll execute engagement strategies that resonate with technical founders, developers, and engineering leaders while navigating the diverse cultural nuances and market dynamics across European tech hubs.

Responsibilities:

Develop compelling customer narratives—case studies, technical deep-dives, founder testimonials, thought leadership, video content—that resonate with EMEA startup audiences and showcase how AI-native companies are building with Claude

Define the EMEA startup customer segmentation and tiering framework, mapping accounts from early-stage through growth-stage across European markets to guide advocacy prioritization and resource allocation

Balance high-touch programming for marquee EMEA startup customers with scalable customer marketing initiatives that reach the broader developer and founder community across the region

Design and execute personalized engagement strategies for strategic startup accounts, ensuring programming resonates with technical founders and engineering leaders while addressing regional market dynamics

Orchestrate key moments programming including founder dinners, customer speaking opportunities at EMEA conferences, technical workshops, and startup showcase events across key tech hubs (London, Berlin, Paris, Amsterdam, Stockholm)

Develop EMEA startup customer advisory programs that create authentic experiences and deepen relationships with highest-value accounts and influential founders across the region

Partner with EMEA Startups Sales leadership and Venture Partnerships to identify expansion opportunities and ensure customer marketing initiatives directly support account growth and VC portfolio engagement

Coordinate with strategic EMEA and global VC partners on co-marketing opportunities featuring portfolio company success stories

Build and manage a regional programming calendar that balances customer advocacy activities with strategic account engagement across the EMEA startup ecosystem

Identify and cultivate strategic customer relationships with founders and technical leaders across EMEA who can serve as powerful advocates and reference points for the startup community

Create content that earns respect from technical audiences—authentic founder stories, technical implementation deep-dives, and developer-focused case studies tailored for EMEA markets

You may be a good fit if you:
Have 6+ years of B2B customer marketing experience within SaaS or technology companies, ideally within EMEA markets or with significant EMEA responsibility

Have a proven track record building customer advocacy programs from scratch, with demonstrated success in customer storytelling, advocacy program development, and account engagement

Have experience marketing to and building relationships with high-growth EMEA startups and technical founders

Can speak credibly to technical audiences—understand AI concepts, developer workflows, and technical use cases well enough to identify and tell compelling stories

Have a strategic yet hands-on approach—ability to balance high-touch marquee customer programming with scaled programs, understanding when each approach is appropriate

Have deep understanding of EMEA market dynamics, regional preferences, and cultural nuances that inform customer engagement strategies within the startup ecosystem

Have exceptional storytelling abilities—can identify compelling customer narratives and bring them to life across multiple formats that feel authentic, not corporate

Have a fast-paced working style with strong bias to action—comfortable shipping 80% solutions quickly and iterating, with ability to pivot as priorities shift

Can thrive in ambiguity and startup environments, building programs with minimal guidance

Have a background in B2B tech, ideally with experience at fast-paced scale-ups or developer-focused companies

Currently based in EMEA region, and if applicable, willing to relocate to London

Have experience building relationships with EMEA VCs, accelerators, or partnering with VC firms to drive portfolio engagement and co-marketing

Have previous experience at leading AI companies or marketing AI/ML products specifically

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.

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.
