The opportunity
Anthropic leases large data center campuses from developers, and our compute roadmap depends on those campuses being built, energized and handed over on schedule. When a signed project slips, the fastest fix is often commercial: change who pays for what, who controls what, and what happens when a date is missed.
What you'll do
Run the issues list on live renegotiations and keep parallel papers conformed: (term sheets with more than one counterparty, amendments, side letters, schedules), catching the differences before the other side does.
Turn first drafts of term sheets, amendments and formal notices with in house and outside counsel.
Write the internal approval memo and collect sign offs from Finance, Legal,: Construction, Power and Operations.
Hold the day to day channel with the developer and its counsel on: deliverables, lists and dates, and escalate commercial points and misses.
Visit the sites. Sit with developer and landlord management (not only the: operations team) to see what is going wrong and what is going right, and turn what our construction leads are seeing into contract positions.
Own version control, the notice calendar and the claims register.
What they're looking for
- Help onboard two senior contract specialists on the team.
- Have carried complex commercial agreements from term sheet to signature as: the person holding the issues list, in real estate, energy, infrastructure, construction or project finance.
- Can read a lease, work letter or construction contract and say in plain: English who carries which risk and what happens when a date is missed.
- Have held your ground with counterparties in challenging situations day after: day without losing the facts or the relationship.
