Sitting within our Data Governance team, you'll work at the intersection of privacy, technology, compliance and business operations. You'll be a trusted advisor across the organisation, driving best practice, supporting privacy initiatives and helping to shape how data is governed across Gymshark.
From managing privacy operations and supporting compliance programmes to influencing stakeholders and preparing for emerging regulations, you'll help keep our data practices robust, scalable and future-ready.
WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING:
- Owning and managing day-to-day privacy operations, including individual rights requests (DSARs), privacy queries and data breach processes.
- Maintaining and improving key privacy and governance documentation such as privacy notices, processing agreements, policies and procedures.
- Supporting Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs) and wider privacy risk assessments across the business.
- Partnering with teams across Gymshark to embed privacy-by-design principles into projects, processes and new initiatives.
- Acting as a trusted subject matter expert, providing guidance on data handling, governance and regulatory requirements.
- Supporting compliance with GDPR, PECR and other relevant privacy regulations across multiple territories.
- Helping to manage Records of Processing Activities (RoPA), retention schedules and governance controls.
- Delivering engaging education and awareness initiatives to strengthen data privacy knowledge across the business.
- Supporting governance reviews, privacy audits and continuous improvement activities.
- Assessing privacy risks associated with new technologies, vendors and business processes.
- Collaborating with Legal, Security and Technology teams to ensure data is managed safely and responsibly.
- Supporting Gymshark's evolving approach to AI governance, data ethics and emerging regulatory requirements.
