Senior Manager Global Environment, Health, Safety, and Sustainability
Job Description: Global Senior Manager, Environment, Health, Safety (EHS) & Sustainability (S)
The Global Senior Manager, Environment, Health, Safety, and Sustainability (EHS&S) is a critical leadership role within Fluke’s strategic and expanded Global EHS&S team. This position is responsible for developing, implementing, and continuously improving the Fluke Global EHS&S strategy across all company operations, including production and service.
A key focus of this role is ensuring global compliance with non-product environmental and sustainability regulations—distinct from product-related compliance. This includes driving measurable performance in areas such as packaging, supply chain traceability, emissions, waste, and global sustainability reporting to government regulatory bodies. The role also supports broader organizational compliance with international and domestic EHS&S regulations and leads initiatives to minimize environmental impact and advance sustainability across the value chain.
This position includes direct oversight of four North American facilities (Everett, WA) and dotted-line leadership across EMEA, APAC, and ROW production and service sites.
