Anthropic’s Life Sciences team is looking for a Partnership Manager to be the day-to-day owner of our most strategic relationships—partnerships that pair Claude directly with biotech company formation and R&D. You’ll be intimately involved in everything we do with our initial cohort of partners, owning each relationship end-to-end and managing a wide set of internal and external stakeholders. You will act as the connective tissue between our external partners and Anthropic’s Life Sciences research team, ensuring that the skills developed across partnerships are mapped, shared, and reused, and that learning flows in both directions.

Requirements
Skills
- Experience managing complex, technical partnerships or business development relationships, ideally in biotech, pharma, or another scientifically intensive industry.
- Strong scientific or technical fluency and ability to hold detailed conversations about biotech R&D roadmaps.
- Some experience with product development or product management, even if lightweight.
- Comfortable owning a relationship end-to-end—from negotiating scope to running day-to-day delivery—rather than handing pieces off to other teams.
- Ability to manage multiple senior internal and external stakeholders simultaneously with patience and clarity.
Responsibilities
- Serve as the primary day-to-day point of contact and relationship owner for Anthropic's initial, and growing, set of partners, staying closely involved in the substance of each partnership rather than just its logistics.
- Own execution of each partnership's technical roadmap and success metrics, tracking progress against commitments and surfacing risks early.
- Manage the full set of internal and external stakeholders for each relationship, including technical leads, business sponsors, and executives on both sides.
- Act as the connective tissue between partners and Anthropic's Life Sciences research team, working closely with our research team to map the skills being developed across partnerships and ensure cross-functional learning.
- Help shape and negotiate the specifics of each partnership's scope—co-development of new skills, company co-creation structures, and novel deal constructs—and make sure that ambition survives the handoff into delivery.
- Build the operating rhythms, documentation, and internal processes needed to run high-touch partnerships well today, while laying the groundwork for a more scalable PiaP model as the program matures.
- Bring field signals back to the Life Sciences research team so that what we learn from individual partnerships improves our broader platform and approach.
