Anthropic is seeking a Senior Accountant to build and own the consolidations and intercompany accounting function as the company scales through acquisitions and international expansion. This is a hands-on role with significant design and process-building responsibility, reporting to the Head of Consolidations & Intercompany.
You will prepare and own the monthly and quarterly consolidation close in Workday, including intercompany eliminations, multi-currency translation, and consolidated reconciliations. You'll manage the intercompany sub-ledger end-to-end: transaction matching, settlement, balance confirmations, and resolution of out-of-balance positions across entities. A key part of the role is designing and maintaining the cost-allocation model for shared costs, including pay-on-behalf-of and collect-on-behalf-of flows, building it to be automatable and defensible.
You will document intercompany transaction flows and maintain the single source of truth for entity structure, agreements, and elimination logic. You'll partner with leadership to design the target operating model for the pillar, then build and codify it through operating procedures and controls. The role includes operationalizing transfer-pricing arrangements with Tax, supporting FX and intercompany settlement processes with Treasury, and integrating newly acquired entities into the consolidation framework.
A critical part of success is identifying and building automation across the consolidation and intercompany close—in Workday, reporting tools, and with AI-assisted tooling—with a bias toward removing manual work. You'll prepare consolidation and intercompany audit support and serve as the primary point of contact for external auditors on this area, and support technical accounting analysis on consolidation matters.
Required: hands-on experience preparing multi-entity, multi-currency consolidation closes in an ERP with intercompany eliminations and currency translation; working knowledge of US GAAP for consolidations, intercompany transactions, and foreign currency; experience building or materially redesigning an accounting process, model, or reconciliation; advanced spreadsheet and data-handling skills; Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field.
Preferred: CPA, ACA, or equivalent; Workday Financials or consolidation module experience; transfer pricing or intercompany service agreement operationalization; FX accounting and Treasury partnership experience; M&A entity integration experience; close automation through scripting, reporting tools, or AI; public accounting and high-growth operating experience; comfort with ambiguity and explaining complex structures simply.
