Safe started playing rugby at Old Patesians in Cheltenham, before joining Hartpury College in the summer of 2012, where he became a full-time member of the Gloucester Academy.

He represented England U18s, winning two AASE League titles and a FIRA Championship back in the 2014-15 season.[1] He was also named in the England U20s for the 2015 Six Nations Under 20s Championship and for the 2015 World Rugby Under 20 Championship.[2]

On 24 May 2018, Safe signed his first professional contract with Gloucester, thus promoted to the senior squad from the 2018-19 season.[3]

In August 2019, following his release from Gloucester, Safe returns to Hartpury College in the RFU Championship from the 2019-20 season.[4]
