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.

Location-based hybrid policy: Currently, we expect all staff to be in one of our offices at least 25% of the time. However, some roles may require more time in our offices.
Visa sponsorship: We do sponsor visas! However, we aren't able to successfully sponsor visas for every role and every candidate. But if we make you an offer, we will make every reasonable effort to get you a visa, and we retain an immigration lawyer to help with this.
We encourage you to apply even if you do not believe you meet every single qualification. Not all strong candidates will meet every single qualification as listed. Research shows that people who identify as being from underrepresented groups are more prone to experiencing imposter syndrome and doubting the strength of their candidacy, so we urge you not to exclude yourself prematurely and to submit an application if you're interested in this work. We think AI systems like the ones we're building have enormous social and ethical implications. We think this makes representation even more important, and we strive to include a range of diverse perspectives on our team.
Your safety matters to us. To protect yourself from potential scams, remember that Anthropic recruiters only contact you from @anthropic.com email addresses. In some cases, we may partner with vetted recruiting agencies who will identify themselves as working on behalf of Anthropic. Be cautious of emails from other domains. Legitimate Anthropic recruiters will never ask for money, fees, or banking information before your first day.

We believe that the highest-impact AI research will be big science. At Anthropic we work as a single cohesive team on just a few large-scale research efforts. And we value impact — advancing our long-term goals of steerable, trustworthy AI — rather than work on smaller and more specific puzzles. We view AI research as an empirical science, which has as much in common with physics and biology as with traditional efforts in computer science. We're an extremely collaborative group, and we host frequent research discussions to ensure that we are pursuing the highest-impact work at any given time. As such, we greatly value communication skills.
The easiest way to understand our research directions is to read our recent research. This research continues many of the directions our team worked on prior to Anthropic, including: GPT-3, Circuit-Based Interpretability, Multimodal Neurons, Scaling Laws, AI & Compute, Concrete Problems in AI Safety, and Learning from Human Preferences.
Anthropic is a public benefit corporation headquartered in San Francisco. We offer competitive compensation and benefits, optional equity donation matching, generous vacation and parental leave, flexible working hours, and a lovely office space in which to collaborate with colleagues.
