Research & Education Sales Lead, Beneficial Deployments at Anthropic · LumiJobs

Responsibilities

Anthropic's Beneficial Deployments team accelerates the work of organizations doing some of the world's most important under resourced work: nonprofits, education institutions, scientific researchers, and organizations advancing economic mobility. Education institutions sit at the center of that mission. They train the next generation, they produce the science the rest of the world builds on, and they are structurally short on time, budget, and technical capacity to figure out new technology on their own.
Reach comes first, and commercial results follow from it. That ordering is deliberate and it is shared across every leader on this team: a research institute that adopts Claude to move its science faster is a win on its own terms, and you will be measured on creating that value with the institutions that matter most, not only on pipeline. You are the single accountable owner for the research and education Enterprise book globally: its target list, its AEs, its numbers, and its field voice inside Anthropic.
You are half seller, half domain translator. You will personally run the most complex institutional deals, and you will be credible in a room of scientists and educators. You know how research is funded, how a university decides, and what it takes for an education sales motion to land in a software company. You will bring that knowledge to the product, applied AI, and marketing teams who build for this audience.
This is a player coach seat. You will be directly involved in deals and directing the account executives who cover education today, and the role is expected to grow thoughtfully with more AEs in key regions globally.
Co-design research and education strategy: the target list of research institutes and research intensive universities, support for K12 staff and educators
Serve as the lead on our most complex institutional deals — setting the pursuit strategy, opening doors with lab and research-office leadership, and personally resolving the toughest hurdles: procurement, security review, and grant-funded budgets.
Direct and coach the account executives working education accounts today: joint account plans, deal reviews, and a repeatable motion for landing a university and expanding within it.
Build the institutional playbook: how a research institute goes from a pilot in one lab to a working deployment across a department, what good adoption looks like, and when to bring in applied AI, customer success, or partners.
Own the book's numbers, institutions reached, activated, and expanded against goals, and use them to decide where the effort goes next.
Be the research and education field voice inside Anthropic: bring deployment learnings, unmet needs, and the realities of academic buying to the product teams that own the roadmap for this audience.
Work in lockstep with our PLG 1:many motion, so that an institution moves cleanly between scaled programs and direct coverage in both directions.
