Privacy Paralegal

I’m looking for an experienced Privacy Contractor to join a busy Privacy/DPO function.

Privacy experience is essential for this role, so I’m specifically looking for someone who has hands-on experience working with DSARs, data incidents and privacy operations.

The role requires 2 days per week on-site in Hounslow, so candidates must be comfortable with this commute.

Key responsibilities will include:

• Supporting Data Subject Access Requests (DSARs), including managing external suppliers responsible for reviewing and redacting high-volume requests.
• Administering, analysing and continuously improving the end-to-end Rights Requests process, ensuring regulatory deadlines are met.
• Supporting the end-to-end management of personal data breach incidents, including fact-finding, internal reporting, mitigation and lessons learned.
• Acting as a key point of coordination for the Privacy team, ensuring queries and requests are handled promptly and effectively.
• Operating, maintaining and improving Rights Requests processes and supporting the DPO with monitoring end-to-end compliance.
• Supporting the day-to-day administration of the Office of the DPO, including managing the team inbox and ensuring timely responses.
• Preparing periodic and ad hoc privacy reports.
• Supporting the DPO in responding to data incidents and providing practical guidance to the business.
