About us
This is a fantastic opportunity to work at a leading Hospice who aspires to a world in which all dying people and those close to them have access to care and support, whenever and wherever they need it. St Christopher's Hospice was founded in 1967 by Dame Cicely Saunders and formed part of the modern hospice movement. Proudly celebrating over 50 years and with a turnover of over GBP20 million, we provide invaluable care and support to over 7,500 people across the five London Boroughs of Bromley, Croydon, Lambeth, Lewisham and Southwark.
Your new role
We have an exciting new opportunity that has arisen for a data protection expert to come on board to help support and promote the importance of data protection throughout St Christopher's. You will take the lead in identifying Information governance or Data protection risks, implementing solutions and new processes to help mitigate against these risks, and complete audits and reviews associated with information governance compliance requirements. You will have access to external expertise which you can draw upon when needed and will be supported by the ICT Director (SIRO) and Information Governance Committee at all times.
Although the role falls within the IT department this is very much an independent role working across all departments, supporting and guiding staff through data protection issues, and to help everyone at St Christopher's to understand the importance of meeting their data protection obligations, ensuring we are compliant with data protection laws.

* It is important that you have excellent communication skills with the ability to influence colleagues.
* You will have the ability to create and rollout training programs appropriate to the environment they are working in.
* It is also important that you are able to work well independently and as part of a close-knit team.
If this sounds like you, we will be excited to hear from you!
Benefits of joining St Christopher's
