Nebius is building the infrastructure that powers the next generation of AI — and we're scaling fast. In line with our values, we're committed to an inclusive environment where everyone can thrive, and we're looking for a skilled Environmental, Health & Safety Specialist to help embed the standards and capability that keep our expanding operations safe, compliant and sustainable.

This is no ordinary role. We need a proactive, credible specialist who takes ownership of EHS delivery on the ground — someone who can translate strategy into practical action, act as a trusted voice of EHS with site and regional teams, and stay close enough to the detail to guide, challenge and support when it matters most.

This is a genuine opportunity to shape how EHS operates as Nebius scales. You'll have real autonomy to set priorities, build capability across your sites, and influence decisions at a site and regional level — backed by strong support from senior stakeholders and a growing global EHS function.

You'll be accountable for the quality, consistency and culture of EHS across your sites — working through others, upholding the standards your teams work to, and stepping in personally when situations demand calm, experienced judgement under pressure. Above all, you'll help make sound EHS practice a source of competitive advantage for Nebius, not a compliance exercise.

What you'll do

• Own and implement the site EHS plan, turning policy and legislation into clear priorities and controls.

• Bring the global EHS strategy to life in everyday work on site, making sure teams are well supported and equipped with the toolkit to advance site EHS performance.

• Lead by example with site teams and contractors — setting expectations and building capability for safe outcomes.

• Own and support the EHS relationship with site and regional stakeholders — advising on risk and holding them to account.

• Support the site assurance programme — audits, inspections, and the quality of risk assessments and controls.

• Support local teams in incidents and near-misses on your site — driving investigations, building a learning culture, and reporting with composure under pressure.

• Apply and uphold the standard for construction, commissioning, operations, decommissioning and other high-risk activity, equipping frontline teams to manage risk on the ground.

• Own the site EHS performance narrative — turning data into insight that drives decisions and accountable action plans.

• Review site EHS data and performance metrics, acting on trends and insights to drive continuous improvement.

• Support the environmental and sustainability agenda on your site, partnering with specialist teams to bring it to life day to day.

• Represent Nebius locally with regulators, contractors and partners, protecting its credibility on EHS.

• Champion Nebius's culture and values, embedding EHS as core to how your site operates.

What we're looking for

Credible, proactive, and people-focused. You'll bring:

• NEBOSH Diploma / Certificate level, Environmental Science, Industrial Hygiene, or related field, plus 3+ years' Environmental, Health & Safety experience — or equivalent.

• Strong working knowledge of country legislation, with a track record of translating it into practical, workable controls.

• A genuine subject-matter expert on the ground — able to go deep on technical detail and bring that expertise into every stakeholder conversation.

• Proven experience leading incident response and investigations, including in high-pressure situations, with the composure to make sound decisions under stress.

• A track record of building trust and credibility with stakeholders at every level.

• A genuine coaching and mentoring mindset, with experience developing capability in others.

• Strong organisational and prioritisation judgement — able to balance risk, workload and pace.

• Excellent communication skills, with the confidence to advise, challenge constructively, and bring fresh ideas forward.

• A continuous-improvement mindset and the appetite to grow within a scaling function.

Preferred

• 5+ years' experience, including international or multi-site regulatory environments.

• Experience within data centres, critical infrastructure, construction, engineering, commissioning or other high-risk environments.

• Relevant qualifications: NEBOSH, IOSH, NCRQ, GradIOSH, CMIOSH or equivalent.

• Experience supporting budgets or resourcing across…
