Ashford (Hybrid Role)
Are you an experienced Data Protection professional looking for an opportunity to make a real impact within a values-driven organisation?
We're recruiting for a Data Protection Manager to lead the delivery of data protection and information governance across a well-established healthcare organisation. This is an excellent opportunity for someone with strong UK GDPR knowledge who enjoys working collaboratively with senior stakeholders while driving compliance, best practice and continuous improvement.
Reporting into the Director of Clinical Governance, you'll take ownership of the organisation's operational data protection and information governance activities. Working closely with senior leaders and the external Data Protection Officer, you'll ensure compliance with UK GDPR and wider information governance requirements while providing expert advice across the business.
This is a varied role where you'll influence policy, improve processes and support teams in maintaining the highest standards of data security and regulatory compliance.
Duties include:
Lead the organisation's data protection and information governance activities.
Manage Subject Access Requests (SARs), Freedom of Information (FOI) requests and Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs).
Develop, review and maintain information governance policies and procedures.
Provide expert advice on data protection legislation and information governance matters.
Support compliance with the Data Security and Protection Toolkit (DSPT).
Work closely with IT teams to support cyber security initiatives and incident response.
Deliver training and raise awareness of data protection and information governance across the organisation.
Conduct audits, monitor compliance and implement continuous improvement initiatives.
Build strong relationships with internal stakeholders and external partners.
To be successful you must have/be:
Previous experience in a Data Protection, Information Governance or Compliance role.
Strong working knowledge of UK GDPR, Data Protection legislation and Information Governance.
Experience managing SARs, FOI requests, DPIAs and data breach processes.
Excellent communication skills with the ability to influence stakeholders at all levels.
Strong organisational skills with exceptional attention to detail.
The ability to interpret legislation and provide practical, commercially focused advice.
A proactive, solutions-focused approach with excellent problem-solving skills.
A relevant Data Protection or Information Governance qualification (or currently working towards one) would be highly advantageous.
Experience within healthcare or the NHS would be beneficial but is not essential.
If you're passionate about data protection, enjoy working in a collaborative environment and are looking for a role where you can genuinely influence best practice, we'd love to hear from you.
