You will collaborate closely with Legal, Information Security, IT, Engineering, and business teams to embed privacy principles into our operations and support compliance across multiple jurisdictions.

• Embed Privacy by Design and Privacy by Default principles into new systems, products, processes, and technology initiatives

• Support third-party privacy assessments and vendor due diligence, identifying data protection risks and coordinating appropriate mitigation measures

• Promote data protection awareness through stakeholder guidance, training, and collaboration across the organisation

Who we’re looking for

• 5+ years of experience in Data Privacy, Data Protection, Information Governance, or closely related GRC functions

• Strong practical knowledge of GDPR and familiarity with other relevant data protection regulations, such as POPIA, PDPA, PDPL, or CCPA

• Hands-on experience conducting DPIAs, privacy risk assessments, data mapping, and compliance assessments

• Experience developing and implementing data privacy policies, frameworks, and operational controls

• Good understanding of Privacy by Design, Privacy by Default, data minimisation, purpose limitation, and data subject rights

• Ability to work with technical teams to translate privacy requirements into practical security and data protection measures

• Experience monitoring control effectiveness, identifying compliance gaps, and coordinating remediation activities

• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to collaborate across technical, legal, and business functions

• A proactive, structured approach to problem-solving, with the ability to independently manage initiatives and drive improvements
