About this role
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.
About the Role
We're looking for a People Specialist to join our International People Team with a particular focus on supporting performance management related activities throughout the EMEA (UK, Ireland, Germany, France, Spain, Switzerland and Italy) and APAC (Japan, India, South Korea, Australia and New Zealand) regions. You'll support People Partners and cross functional teams on the work that helps our managers do their jobs well: performance cases, org changes, developing manager resources, and the operational processes underneath all of it.
Some weeks you'll be deep in a sensitive performance case coaching a manager. Other weeks you're cleaning up a process, rebuilding a tracker, or helping prep a leader for a hard conversation. We need someone who takes both kinds of work seriously and holds the same quality bar for each.
A lot of the work is sensitive. You'll be close to performance management, org restructures, and situations that touch ER or Employment Legal. An understanding of the nuances which exist in relation to performance management and employee relations in different legal and cultural contexts will be critical. Good judgment about what to share, with whom, and in what form is paramount.
Responsibilities
• Manage performance casework regionally: building documentation, tracking timelines, prepping talking points, and keeping details from falling through the cracks while owning the process end to end.
• Own and improve operational processes that managers and People Partners depend on, including outside business activity requests and reorg processing
• Build, maintain, and improve manager resources and documentation so they're useful and current
• Partner with Leadership Design on manager enablement programs like the performance cycle: logistics, content, delivery, and the unglamorous operational work that makes programs run
• Help pull and compile reports and data for sensitive personnel matters
• Maintain tracking systems for casework and manager enablement initiatives; make them better than you found them
Minimum Qualifications
• You have experience working on performance management or employee relations across Europe and ideally APAC
• You've supported complex or sensitive casework before and can work with partial information, messy handoffs, and tight timelines
• You're detail-oriented: you catch things, close loops, and remember where to find crucial information
• Ability to operationalise and scale your work, ensuring that you are able to build over time processes, frameworks and supporting documentation to help us scale
• Strong writt
