ASAP Start
We are recruiting for an experienced Data Protection Specialist to join a growing organisation on an interim basis.
This is a hands-on operational role focused on managing Subject Access Requests (SARs), supporting GDPR compliance and improving data protection processes. This is not a strategic lead position; we are looking for someone who enjoys getting into the detail, managing requests and delivering practical privacy support.
Key Responsibilities:
- Manage the end-to-end SAR process, ensuring accurate and timely responses
- Handle other data subject rights requests, including erasure and restriction requests
- Review information, apply redactions and assess exemptions under UK GDPR
- Maintain accurate records and reporting
- Support DPIAs, data breaches and privacy compliance activities
- Provide practical data protection advice to stakeholders
- Identify opportunities to improve and streamline privacy processes
