• Serving as the primary point of contact for privacy operations across Product, Engineering, Marketing, Sales, Security, and Compliance teams, building trusted partnerships and establishing regular stakeholder cadence.
• Building privacy governance structures (privacy committees, champion networks, escalation paths) and creating self-service resources that enable business teams to operate compliantly.
• Developing privacy metrics, dashboards, and reporting for leadership visibility, and managing audit preparation and compliance evidence.
• Leading privacy culture and change management initiatives, translating complex regulations into practical guidance, and driving adoption across the organization.
• Managing the Privacy Operations Specialist, providing direction on priorities, quality standards, and professional development.

iM Qualified Because I Have...

• 5-8 years of privacy program management experience, with demonstrated experience building privacy programs from scratch or significantly scaling existing programs.
• Deep expertise in GDPR and UK GDPR operational requirements, including hands-on experience with RoPAs, DPIAs, DSARs, international data transfers, and privacy technology platforms (OneTrust, Ketch, etc.).
• Experience working within multi-jurisdictional privacy programs spanning EEA, UK, US, and other global regions.
• Proven track record in SaaS, cloud, or technology environments, preferably serving regulated customers (legal, financial services, healthcare).
• Strong program management and stakeholder coordination skills, with ability to manage multiple workstreams, drive initiatives to completion, and build trusted cross-functional partnerships.
• Excellent communication skills with ability to translate complex privacy regulations into practical operational guidance and drive organizational change.
• Self-starter mentality with ability to build structure in ambiguous environments and work independently while partnering effectively with legal counsel.
• Experience leading a team.

Bonus Points If I Have...

• CIPP/E, CIPP/US, or CIPM certification.
