<div class="content-intro"><p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Airbnb was born in 2007 when two hosts welcomed three guests to their San Francisco home, and has since grown to over 5 million hosts who have welcomed over 2 billion guest arrivals in almost every country across the globe. Every day, hosts offer unique stays and experiences that make it possible for guests to connect with communities in a more authentic way.</span></p></div><p><strong>The Community You Will Join</strong></p> <p>The Cities team leads the work necessary to implement the regulatory products and processes needed globally to comply with regulations, and does so in a manner that also sustainably supports Airbnb's growth.</p> <p>Within Cities, this role owns Airbnb's platform regulatory compliance program across EMEA — the growing set of EU and UK obligations that sit alongside, and increasingly beyond, short-term rental regulation.</p> <p><strong>The Difference You Will Make</strong></p> <p>As Senior Compliance Lead, EMEA, you are the accountable owner for a portfolio of platform regulations that is expanding in scope, scrutiny, and consequence — including the Digital Services Act, the UK Online Safety Act, and more.</p> <p>You will translate each obligation into a durable operating process, a defensible reporting methodology, or a product change — and serve as a trusted advisor to Legal, Policy, and Product leadership on how Airbnb meets its regulatory commitments in the region.</p> <p><strong>A Typical Day:&nbsp;</strong></p> <ul> <li><strong>Own the EMEA compliance portfolio.</strong> Establish the operating processes and documentation that sustain obligations at scale, and report and monitor status and risk.</li> <li><strong>Deliver regulatory reporting and submissions.</strong> Own the annual and ad hoc reporting calendar end to end.

A few things that will always be true for Airbnb’s hiring process: our open roles are posted on Airbnb’s Career’s Page at careers.airbnb.com, and our recruiters correspond only from @<a href="http://airbnb.com">airbnb.com</a> or @<a href="http://ext.airbnb.com">ext.airbnb.com</a> email addresses. Our recruiters will never ask for your Social Security number, bank account details, passport, or payment app information while you are interviewing.&nbsp; We’ll also never ask you to pay a fee, send money, deposit or cash a check, or purchase work-related equipment (such as a company laptop) during the interview process. We encourage candidates to remain vigilant of these recruiting scams and not share sensitive information if you do not believe an individual is actually affiliated with Airbnb.</span></p> <p>&nbsp;</p></div>
