## **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 are looking for an experienced accountant to own Equity Accounting and Reporting at Anthropic, based in San Francisco. You will be the one owner of equity accounting numbers across US GAAP, IFRS and local GAAP in every jurisdiction where we have employees holding equity: expense booking by entity, intercompany recharge booking, current and deferred tax on equity, and the equity footnote and local statutory disclosures, prepared once and reused. You will own equity reporting data from Shareworks, our equity administration platform, through to the ledgers, while staying hands-on: preparing and reviewing close materials, owning your own accounts, and serving as the first escalation point for the judgment calls in your domain.

Share-based compensation (SBC) is one of the most cross-functional areas of our reporting. Grants, vesting, exercises and the events that follow each carry requirements for US GAAP, IFRS and local GAAP expense, pushdown and recharge postings, tax provisioning, payroll withholding, transfer pricing and statutory disclosure, and those needs are met across Equity Administration, Equity Reporting, Accounting, Treasury, Tax, Transfer Pricing and Global Payroll from a single set of award-level records. This is a build role: you will take the open workstreams from manual to automated, work with Finance Systems and Shareworks to build the reports each stage needs, finalize the policies and agreements that sit behind recharges, and bring the end-to-end process to a scalable, efficient and fully compliant close. We are looking for someone who has owned equity accounting in a growing global organization before and wants to do it again at one of the most important companies in the world.

## Key responsibilities

**Close ownership**

- Own the equity portfolio through month-end and quarter-end close: US GAAP, IFRS and local GAAP equity expense, pushed down and booked by entity, including reconciliations, journal entries and variance commentary
- Own intercompany recharge booking: invoicing, settlement, Treasury communication and the foreign exchange (FX) that follows
- Own current and deferred tax on equity by entity and in local currency, including the IFRS deferred tax mark to the share price and windfalls or shortfalls through the tax provision
- Ensure every close deliverable is audit-ready, with clear documentation of positions and supporting evidence

**Technical accounting and policy**

- Write, own and maintain the accounting policies and standard operating procedures (SOPs) for equity across US GAAP, IFRS and local GAAP: grant-date fair value and expense schedules, recharge basis by entity, mobility apportionment, and the treatment of cancellations, modifications and one-off events
- Partner closely with Tax to close every open policy position and execute the recharge agreements that depend on them
- Research the tax and accounting rules for each new jurisdiction entered and categorize it under our framework before the first grant lands there
- Own the equity footnote and local statutory disclosu
