Web Design Manager

About the role

As a Web Design Manager at Anthropic, you will lead the enterprise web design team responsible for how businesses experience Anthropic on the web. Our website is often the first place enterprise buyers encounter Claude, and the pages your team ships need to make complex, technical products feel clear, distinctive, and trustworthy. You'll bring a strong art director's eye to every project, set the craft standard, shape design direction for the next stage of our enterprise web presence, and build a team that does the best work of their careers.

In this role, you'll own the enterprise web design practice: setting priorities, guiding projects from brief to launch, and holding a high bar for visual quality, storytelling, and performance. We're looking for someone who cares deeply about craft and knows how to use art direction (imagery, typography, motion, and composition) to tell a clear, memorable story on every page. You'll partner closely with enterprise marketing as your main day-to-day collaborators on priorities, messaging, and launches, and work alongside web engineering, web strategy and growth, brand and creative, sales and customer teams, product, and external agency partners to ship work that is both beautiful and effective.
