Environment, Health and Safety Specialist

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.

Anthropic is hiring an EHS Specialist to lead Environment, Health and Safety across our EMEA region. As Anthropic continues to scale globally — with a fast-growing footprint across the UK, Ireland, and continental Europe — we're investing in EHS expertise on the ground, where the work happens.

We're looking for someone who's been the EHS go-to in a complex, multi-country environment — comfortable owning the day-to-day in their region while helping a small, growing team write the standards that make global EHS work at scale. You'll handle hands-on work — inspections, investigations, occupational health cases, committees, training — and you'll co-author the EMEA-tuned versions of programs we're building to meet UK, Irish, and EU regulatory expectations.

You won't be doing this alone. You'll partner closely with the EHS Lead in the US, and with our growing in-region Workplace, Security, HR, and Legal teams. As we continue to expand the broader Global Safety and Security team in EMEA, you'll have peers around you to collaborate with on shared work.

You'll own EHS execution across our EMEA sites — running onsite inspections, hazard and risk assessments, and ergonomic reviews on a regular cadence. You'll investigate workplace incidents, injuries, and illnesses, and manage occupational health cases through their lifecycle in coordination with our occupational health providers, HR, and Legal partners.

You'll be the in-region face of EHS for our employees and our partners. That means standing up and supporting health and safety committees and emergency response teams in line with each jurisdiction's requirements (UK SRSCR, French CSE, Irish safety reps, and others as we expand), and engaging with landlords, building management, and contractors to make sure shared environments are safe and meet our standards.

You'll co-build the EMEA versions of Anthropic's core EHS programs — emergency action plans, fire safety, ergonomics, contractor and vendor safety, occupational health, and training. Where we have a global standard, you'll tune it for UK, Ireland, France, Germany, and other EU markets. Where we don't have one yet, you'll help write it.

You’ll serve as the in-region owner for fire safety and fire compliance - coordinating Fire Risk Assessments, tracking remediation, and supporting Responsible Person / duty-holder requirements under UK, Irish, and other European fire safety law.

You'll lead our internally-facing environmental health work in the region — managing hazardous materials onsite, supporting our indoor air quality program, water safety (including Legionella), and lighting standards as they relate to ergonomics and design. You'll also help coordinate environmental reporting and data collection specific to our internal operations (sites we occupy directly — not data center or compute infrastructure).

You'll support new-country and new-office stand-ups in EMEA — running pre-opening EHS assessments, advising on design and fit-out, and getting the right local programs in place before we go live.

You'll deliver and coordinate EHS training to EMEA employees, manage EMEA EHS vendor relationships (occupational health, ergonomics, training, audit), and keep our EHS documentation, registers, and reporting systems accurate and current for the region.
