About Anthropic

Anthropic is an AI safety and research company that's working to build reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems. Backed by Accel, Bessemer and General Catalyst.

About the role

As a Senior Analyst, Travel & Expense, you will run the day-to-day financial controls, audit program, and executive reporting behind Anthropic's T&E function. T&E touches every employee, every legal entity, and every executive, and it runs on Navan, Brex, and negotiated supplier agreements. Spend and transaction volume have grown several-fold in the past six quarters, and the controls need to scale to meet a public-company standard. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • 7+ years of experience in travel and expense, corporate accounting, internal audit, or finance operations, ideally at a high-growth technology company
  • Hands-on SOX or internal-controls experience: writing process narratives, testing or operating key controls, and working with external auditors
  • Strong accounting fundamentals, including GL coding, account reconciliations, accruals, and month-end close support
  • Deep platform expertise in Navan and/or comparable TMC platforms, plus Brex or equivalent expense management tools, and working knowledge of ERP integrations (Workday preferred)
  • Strong analytical skills: comfort with large transaction datasets, sampling methods, and anomaly detection
  • Sound judgment and discretion with sensitive information, and the ability to work credibly with senior executives and their support teams
