Environment, Health and Safety Specialist

Anthropic is hiring an EHS Specialist to lead Environment, Health and Safety across our EMEA region. As Anthropic scales globally with a fast-growing footprint across the UK, Ireland, and continental Europe, we're investing in EHS expertise on the ground. You'll handle hands-on work — inspections, investigations, occupational health cases, committees, training — and co-author EMEA-tuned versions of programs to meet UK, Irish, and EU regulatory expectations. You'll partner closely with the EHS Lead in the US and with in-region Workplace, Security, HR, and Legal teams.

• Own EHS execution across EMEA sites — running onsite inspections, hazard and risk assessments, and ergonomic reviews.
• Investigate workplace incidents, injuries, and illnesses, and manage occupational health cases.
• Be the in-region face of EHS for employees and partners, supporting health and safety committees and emergency response teams.
• Co-build EMEA versions of core EHS programs — emergency action plans, fire safety, ergonomics, contractor and vendor safety, occupational health, and training.
• Serve as in-region owner for fire safety and fire compliance, coordinating Fire Risk Assessments and supporting duty-holder requirements.
• Lead internally-facing environmental health work — hazardous materials, indoor air quality, water safety (including Legionella), and lighting standards.
• Support new-country and new-office stand-ups in EMEA with pre-opening EHS assessments and local programs.
• Deliver and coordinate EHS training, manage EHS vendor relationships, and keep documentation and reporting systems current.

• 7+ years of experience in a role with similar responsibilities, with meaningful time owning EHS for a region.
• Strong working knowledge of EHS regulatory frameworks across the UK and Ireland (HSE, HSA), and ideally additional EU jurisdictions.
• Working knowledge of fire safety regulation and compliance across Europe, including Fire Risk Assessments and duty-holder responsibilities.
• Comfortable being the EHS expert in the room, translating regulatory requirements into clear decisions.
• Passionate about workplace EHS, with ability to motivate and persuade others.
• Resilient and adaptable in fast-paced environments.
• Write clear, useful SOPs, playbooks, and program documents, and create engaging presentations and training content.
• Hands-on experience with software tools for EHS incident reporting, risk assessment, learning management.

• Bachelor's degree in Occupational Health and Safety, Environmental Science, or related field.
• NEBOSH National or International Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety.
• Chartered or Graduate membership of IOSH (CMIOSH, GradIOSH); CIEH or comparable Irish/EU equivalent.
• Familiarity with ISO 45001 and ISO 14001.
• Experience with French CSE/CHSCT processes, DUERP, or German BetrSichV requirements.
• Background in occupational health, fire safety, or industrial hygiene.
• Experience standing up EHS programs for new offices or new countries.
• Excellent computer skills.
