Privacy Senior Manager
We are seeking an experienced Privacy Senior Manager to lead the development and delivery of a robust privacy framework across a complex, fast-paced organisation. This is a senior role requiring strong technical knowledge, sound commercial judgement and the ability to influence stakeholders at all levels. You will help ensure that privacy is embedded into business strategy, operational processes, technology and customer experiences.
You will provide expert advice on data protection legislation, including the UK GDPR, Data Protection Act 2018 and relevant international privacy requirements. Key responsibilities will include overseeing data protection impact assessments, legitimate interest assessments, records of processing activities, data sharing arrangements, international transfers and privacy notices. You will also manage the response to data subject rights requests, personal data breaches and regulatory enquiries, ensuring that matters are assessed and handled appropriately.
The role will involve leading privacy risk assessments and assurance activity, monitoring compliance with internal policies and external requirements, and maintaining clear reporting for senior leadership and relevant governance committees. You will establish practical controls, guidance and training programmes, while promoting a strong culture of privacy by design and responsible data use. You will also work closely with legal, information security, procurement, technology, risk and operational teams, as well as supporting audits and regulatory engagement where required.
Applicants should have substantial experience in a senior privacy, data protection or information governance position, ideally within a complex or highly regulated environment. A strong understanding of UK and international data protection law, privacy risk management and emerging technology issues is essential. Professional privacy qualifications, such as CIPP/E, CIPM or equivalent, would be advantageous. You will need excellent communication, influencing and organisational skills, with the confidence to challenge constructively and translate complex requirements into clear, practical actions. The ability to manage competing priorities, lead projects and develop trusted relationships at all levels is also important.
