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.

Role Overview
As Head of Customer Success, International at Anthropic, you will build and lead our Customer Success function across EMEA and APAC, scaling a team of managers and CSMs who help our most strategic international customers realize the value of Claude.

Key Responsibilities
- Build and lead a multi-layered Customer Success organization across EMEA and APAC, managing managers and scaling the team responsibly as our international business grows

- Own international CS business outcomes including customer health, retention, expansion, and satisfaction across EMEA and APAC accounts
- Hire, develop, and coach a high‑performing team of CS managers and individual contributors, building a culture that reflects Anthropic's values across multiple geographies and cultures
- Partner with US‑based and International CS, Sales, Product, and Engineering counterparts to drive the international agenda, ensuring customer voice from EMEA and APAC reaches decision‑making forums
- Establish scalable processes, playbooks, and operating cadences that work across time zones and regional contexts
- Represent Anthropic with senior customer stakeholders across international markets, leading executive engagements, QBRs, and strategic account conversations
- Contribute to global CS strategy as a senior leader on the function, bringing international perspective to team planning, segmentation, and prioritisation
- Help shape how we deploy AI responsibly with customers across diverse regulatory and cultural environments

- Experience owning enterprise customer relationships and driving measurable business outcomes (retention, expansion, adoption)
- Strong executive presence and the ability to represent a company credibly with C‑suite stakeholders in multiple regions
- Excellent cross‑functional partnership skills, particularly working across time zones with US‑based leadership
