Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
The post holder will take a solution-focused approach to IG, encouraging a culture of identifying opportunities and designing systems and services in a way that complies with Data Protection legislation, ensuring that the implementation of the service is achieved in a practical and supportive way and that IG is not perceived as an obstacle or blocker.
