Data Protection Administrator
We are seeking a detail-oriented Data Protection Administrator to support the effective management of data protection and privacy activities across the organisation. The successful candidate will help maintain compliance with applicable data protection legislation, internal policies, and information governance standards. This role involves working with colleagues across different departments, handling sensitive information responsibly, and providing accurate administrative support in a confidential environment.
Key responsibilities will include maintaining records of processing activities, data inventories, privacy notices, consent records, and data protection documentation. You will assist with responding to data subject requests, including access, correction, deletion, and objection requests, ensuring that enquiries are logged, tracked, and completed within the relevant timescales. You will also support the coordination of personal data breaches, conduct initial information-gathering, maintain incident records, and escalate potential risks appropriately. Additional duties may include assisting with data protection impact assessments, supplier due diligence, audit preparation, policy reviews, and the delivery of staff awareness activities.
Applicants should have experience in an administrative, compliance, information governance, or data protection role, together with a strong interest in privacy and confidentiality. A good understanding of data protection principles and relevant legislation is desirable, as is experience handling requests, maintaining accurate records, or working with regulatory documentation. You will need excellent organisation skills, careful attention to detail, and the ability to manage competing priorities while meeting deadlines. Strong written and verbal communication skills are essential, along with sound judgement when handling sensitive or confidential information. Proficiency with standard office and document-management systems is expected. The ability to work independently, collaborate effectively, and identify opportunities to improve processes will be highly valued.
