About the Role
<div class="content-intro"><h2><strong>About Anthropic</strong></h2> <p>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.</p></div><h2><strong>About the role</strong></h2><p>Training and serving frontier AI models requires data center capacity at a scale and pace that conventional delivery models were not built for. Anthropic's Data Center Capacity Delivery team embeds with developers, general contractors, and third-party partners to take leased and partnered sites from deal close through floor access and operational handover as fast as they can safely be built.</p><p>As a Regional Manager, you'll own delivery across a regional portfolio of active and upcoming projects. You'll build and lead the team of Senior Delivery Managers and third-party partners who sit on those sites, set the standards they execute to, and step in yourself where a project needs it. You are the executive-level interface to our developer partners in the region and the intake point for projects handed over from our transaction team.</p><p>This is a highly cross-functional role: you'll work daily with our transaction, design engineering, facility operations and commissioning, deployment, and safety teams, and with developers, GCs, and owner's-representative firms on the ground.</p><h2><strong>MOC (Mission + Outcomes + Competencies)</strong></h2><h3><strong>Mission</strong></h3><p>Deliver the region’s data center projects to floor access as fast as they can safely be built.</p><h3><strong>Outcomes</strong></h3><ul><li><p>Every active project in the region delivered against early-floor-access and floor-access milestones.</p></li><li><p>Senior Delivery Manager team hired and led; owner’s-rep partners contracted and managed.</p></li><li><p>Delivery standards (schedule, quality, change control, reporting) enforced across the portfolio.</p></li><li><p>Executive reporting on progress vs plan and regional capacity projections in place.</p></li></ul><h3><strong>Competencies</strong></h3><ul><li><p>Senior owner- or GC-side mission-critical delivery leadership.</p></li><li><p>Builds and leads multi-project teams.</p></li><li><p>Executive-level developer and GC relationship management.</p></li><li><p>Leads on site through presence; owns outcomes where no process exists.</p></li></ul><h2><strong>Responsibilities</strong></h2><ul><li><p>Lead. This is a role where leadership trumps management and process. You are expected to be on the region's sites enough to shape the culture, approach, and aggressiveness that define the extended teams there — across the portfolio, not one project — and to impact outcomes in a favorable manner.</p></li><li><p>Be a force multiplier. Hire, develop, empower, and lead the Senior Delivery Managers on those sites, and raise the skillset developers, contractors, owner's-rep partners, and key trades bring to every project in the region; plan resourcing and headcount as the portfolio grows.</p></li><li><p>Own portfolio execution for the region — schedule, quality, and safety outcomes on every active project, measured against early-floor-access and floor-access milestones. You are empowered and have autonomy to own this regions record of performance.</p></li><li><p>Drive ownership and influence both inside and outside contractual structures: select, scope, contract, and manage owner's-rep and project-management partners; where contracts, incentives, or culture get in the way of speed, change them, and replace partners when performance or culture slips</p></li><li><p>Set and enforce delivery standards across projects — integrated schedule, quality requirements, change control, reporting, and tools — and validate that they are met</p></li><li><p>Identify blockers early and clear them across developer, GC, and trade layers; step in on site where a project needs it</p></li></ul><h2><strong>You may be a good fit if you</strong></h2><ul><li><p>Have [10+] years delivering data center or other mission-critical construction, including several as the owner's or GC's senior leader
