PRIVACY COUNSEL
12 MONTH FTC
MEDIA MULTINATIONAL
We have a great opportunity for a Privacy lawyer to join a Tech Driven Media Multinational on a 12-month FTC.
Reporting to Chief Compliance and Data Privacy Officer, you will be part of a cutting-edge team and business where data is at the heart of the group's business model.
You will work closely with compliance and DP colleagues around the world to enable compliance with relevant Privacy legislation. You will also get involved in strategic initiatives and projects, including the roll out of innovations in Big Data and Ad tech.
A sample of your day-to-day responsibilities include:
* Leading the Privacy Office, responding to privacy queries around Europe, Singapore and LatAm including from regulators and media, and internally from Local Compliance Officers, Data Champions and Tech teams;
* Conducting Data Protection Impact Assessments on new innovations and suppliers;
* Maintaining Policies and delivering training on Data Privacy;
* Coordinating Data Subject Access Requests, where they arise;
* Keeping abreast of Ad Tech changes to Data Privacy requirements for the Group;
* Assessing high risk relationships.
You will be a proactive, self-starting privacy lawyer with solid experience, indicatively at 4+ years' PQE. Ideally you will have worked within the wider tech, advertising or marketing industries.
The company demographic is young, brand-and media-friendly, polished but down to earth and informal: cultural and personality fit will be crucial. Pro-active involvement and excellent relationship building, and communication skills are key.
