Head of Production, Creative Studio

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.

The Creative Studio is Anthropic’s in-house creative team responsible for the brand expression across Anthropic and Claude. We care about craft, making things by hand and using AI when it makes sense. The team is growing, and we’re looking for people who do excellent work to join us. The stakes are real, and there’s room to shape what all this becomes.

The Head of Production sits at the intersection of creative excellence and operational rigor. You’ll lead a team of producers, design the production structures and workflows we’ll rely on as we grow, and build and manage an agency ecosystem that gives us access to world‑class creative talent at every scale. Day to day, you’ll be the person ensuring that ambitious creative projects move from concept to completion with the quality and efficiency Anthropic’s brands deserves — while also thinking strategically about what our production capabilities need to look like a year or more from now.

As Head of Production, you will be a foundational leader in that effort — responsible for building, scaling, and running the production organization that brings our creative vision to life across every discipline and format.

• Lead and develop a team of producers across multiple creative disciplines, setting clear expectations, supporting professional growth, and building a collaborative, high‑performing production culture
• Design and evolve the production team’s structure, hiring roadmap, and operating model to meet Anthropic’s growing creative needs — helping shape what our production organization looks like at scale
• Own production budgets, including forecasting, allocation, and financial reporting across projects and the broader team, ensuring resources are used effectively and strategically
• Manage contractor and freelance staffing across disciplines — building a flexible resourcing model that can scale up and down in response to creative output demands
• Evaluate, onboard, and curate an agency ecosystem — selecting partners that are aligned with Anthropic’s brand standards and can deliver consistently high‑quality work, and managing those relationships over time
• Establish and refine production best practices, workflows, and quality standards across the studio, ensuring consistency and efficiency as the team and output grow
• Partner closely with creative leadership to translate creative briefs and ambitious project scopes into realistic production plans — balancing creative ambition with timeline and budget realities
• Collaborate cross‑functionally with brand, marketing, communications, and product teams to understand project needs, align on priorities, and keep production moving smoothly across the organization
• Track production performance, identify bottlenecks or inefficiencies, and continuously improve the way we work — from intake and scheduling through to delivery
• Identify tooling needs across the organization — evaluating, implementing, and driving adoption of systems such as digital asset management (DAM), project delivery platforms, and resourcing/utilization tracking tools

• Have 10+ years of experience in creative production, with a track record of leading production teams or functions — ideally within a brand, marketing, or creative studio environment
• Have deep experience managing production budgets, contractor staffing, and agency relationships at scale
• Understand a wide range of creative disciplines and production formats — from video and photography to digital, experiential, and print — and can manage production across them
• Are a strong operator who can build systems, processes, and workflows that scale — and who enjoys the challenge of bringing order and clarity to complex, fast‑moving creative work
• Can balance strategic thinking with hands‑on execution,…
