What will I be doing as a Data Protection Officer?

You will be advising on the practical implementation of GDPR, and UK Data Protection Laws when agreed. You’ll be working in conjunction and alignment with the AXA UK GDPR programme of activity, ensuring a consolidated and consistent approach, and work in unison with the AXA PPP Healthcare DOP and Project Manager.

What skills and experience are we looking for?

To become our Data Protection Officer you will need at least 5 years’ experience as a DPO providing technical advice to support the implementation and management of data protection programmes in healthcare and/or financial services environments (ideally both). You must be able to tangibly demonstrate both a technical understanding of the DPA/GDPR, but also the provision of practical data protection advice to the business.

An appropriate data protection qualification would be advantageous, such as CIPP, CIPM, ISEB/BCS certificate in data protection, and PDP practitioner certificate in data protection.
