Head of Insurance & Business Risk
Menlo Ventures, California, MO, United States
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.
Role Overview
Anthropic is looking for a Head of Insurance & Business Risk to build this pivotal function from the ground up. You'll own Anthropic's corporate insurance program end‑to‑end — assessing our risk landscape, designing and placing coverage, and developing the broader risk mitigation strategies that protect the company as we grow.
Responsibilities
Own the full corporate insurance program across all lines — D&O, cyber, tech E&O, and Property & Casualty — including renewals, claims, and broker relationships
Centralize insurance ownership from stakeholders across Legal, Facilities, Security, Product, Policy, and Research into a single coherent program
Meet regularly with business leaders to surface emerging risks, and design coverage or alternative risk‑transfer strategies to address them
Build relationships with carriers, underwriters, and regulators to help shape how the insurance market approaches AI‑specific risk
Think about risk transfer holistically — deciding when to insure, self‑insure, use captives, transfer contractually, or mitigate operationally
Embed Claude throughout the insurance and risk workflow, from exposure modeling to renewal preparation
Qualifications
Have owned the full corporate insurance program at a company, including renewal cycle, claims, broker management, and board reporting
Have deep technical insurance depth: can speak credibly to coverage structure, exclusions, and pricing dynamics across major lines without deferring to a broker
Have built or significantly rebuilt a risk function, rather than only inheriting and maintaining one
Think about risk transfer holistically and can articulate when not to buy a policy
Be comfortable operating at the pace of a fast‑growing company and being seen as additive to the business, not a blocker
Have a point of view on how to structure coverage for risks the market hasn't fully priced yet
Strong Candidates May Also Have
Experience with data center, hyperscaler, or neocloud‑specific property and business interruption risk
Captive formation or captive management experience
A background on the broker side that has since been brought in‑house at a fast‑growing company
Experience engaging directly with regulators or carriers on novel risk categories
Annual Salary
$300,000–$370,000 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. If we make you an offer, we will make every reasonable effort to obtain a visa.
Inclusion & Diversity
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.
