Your Influential Mission: You Will…

• Own the day-to-day record keeping that sits at the heart of our data protection framework, creating, maintaining and quality-checking records so they always tell an accurate story
• Support a Group-wide review of our Records of Processing Activities (ROPA), making sure every legal entity has up-to-date documentation of the personal data it processes, as the law requires
• Help run our data mapping exercise, building and maintaining a clear, current view of where personal data lives and how it moves across the business
• Assist with Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs), helping identify, document and assess higher-risk processing activities
• Support supplier and system due diligence, gathering information, tracking reviews and flagging anything that needs a closer look
• Highlight potential data protection risks and help track the actions taken to resolve them
• Work closely with colleagues across the business, explaining requirements clearly and following up until things are done properly
• Learn continuously, through structured training, mentoring from the team, and the work itself

Components for Success: You…

• Want to grow your career in data protection, privacy, compliance or regulation, this is a step forward, not a step down
• Read carefully and enjoy it, you can take a long document and pull out what actually matters
• Communicate clearly and confidently, in writing and out loud, with people at every level
• Can explain something precisely enough that someone who cannot see it still understands it
• Are highly organised and detail-orientated, and take pride in getting the small things right
• Are proactive, you spot what needs doing and start it, rather than waiting to be asked
• Are comfortable with structured, repetitive work when it builds real understanding, and are curious about the 'why' behind it
• Are confident with spreadsheets and comfortable working with structured information
• Are fluent in written and spoken English
• Are based in, or able to work from, London on a hybrid basis (currently three days a week in the office)

You’ll Get Extra Points for…

• Any exposure to compliance, regulatory, legal, risk or data protection work, whether through your studies or a previous role
• Experience in an office-based customer service environment, our best privacy professionals often come from backgrounds where they learned complaints handling, ethics and clear correspondence
• Experience in a regulated sector such as banking, financial services, gaming or with a regulator
• Experience preparing or delivering presentations
• A genuine interest in technology, social media and artificial intelligence, and how they intersect with privacy
• A relevant degree or certification in law, compliance, information governance or data protection welcome, but never a substitute for curiosity

Thrive in a culture that values...

• Real investment in you, structured training, hands-on mentoring from experienced privacy professionals, and the space to ask questions
• Genuine exposure: you will work across our legal entities and business units, and see how a FTSE-listed international group handles privacy end to end
• A team that explains the reasoning, not just the task, you will understand the story behind every record you keep
• Hybrid working and a culture built on trust, transparency and delivery rather than clock-watching
• An international, inclusive environment where diverse thinking is treated as a business advantage
• The chance to build real depth in one of the most in-demand disciplines in technology today
