Our team is a quickly growing group of committed researchers, engineers, policy experts, and business leaders working together to build beneficial AI systems. As a Strategic Account Executive (Retail & Commercial Banking, Canada) at Anthropic, you'll join the foundational team introducing our frontier AI platform to Canada's leading retail and commercial banks. You'll drive adoption of safe, frontier AI by securing strategic, enterprise-scale deals across Canadian retail banking, commercial banking, and consumer finance organizations.

You'll leverage deep Canadian banking sales expertise to grow revenue while becoming a trusted advisor to industry stakeholders — helping them embed AI into customer service, underwriting, risk, and back-office operations workflows, and uncovering its full range of capabilities. Working closely with Product and Marketing, you'll continuously sharpen our value proposition, sales motion, and market positioning for Canadian banking decision-makers. The ideal candidate is energized by building a new category in an established, highly regulated industry — identifying high-potential accounts across Canada's major banks and credit unions, and running the strategies to win them.

By driving deployment of Anthropic's emerging products into Canadian banking enterprises, you'll help these organizations unlock new capabilities while advancing the responsible development of AI.

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 think AI systems like the ones we're building have enormous social and ethical implications. 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.

Anthropic is a public benefit corporation headquartered in San Francisco.
