Black Biro Recruitment's not-for-profit technology client is seeking an energetic and enthusiastic Privacy & Data Security Manager to join their team working in International Development, helping to end poverty in developing countries.
Our client builds cutting edge technology for some of the poorest and most challenging environments on earth. They are working at the exciting interface of biometrics, technology and international development: changing the status quo in the way NGOs and governments deliver vital services like vaccines, health care, finance, and emergency aid. Working with mentors from top companies like Google and the World Bank, our client has designed and developed a fully integrated identification system that will reach at least 2.5 million people by 2021.
They are seeking a Privacy & Data Security Manager to spearhead our strategic and innovative leadership in this area. They are in a unique situation: a nonprofit, impact driven company that is processing millions of highly sensitive biometric records in some of the world's harshest settings. Privacy doesn't get more challenging (and exciting) than this!
You will be a proven self starter with an enquiring mind, and a capacity to stay curious. You will have demonstrated ability to dig into detail to identify innovative approaches to privacy and data security, whilst protecting the sensitive personal data of beneficiaries. You can understand different perspectives of this complex area, and know how to connect the dots and interact with key stakeholders.
An inspiring passion for privacy and data security, as well as the ability to effectively communicate both internally and externally will be essential.
You will be working within a cross-functional team of passionate engineers and development professionals focused on different aspects of designing products and deploying them in the field. Therefore, a deep-rooted commitment to collaborative problem solving, robust data-driven insights, and high quality communications is critical. Past experience with the requirements below, and the genuine desire to develop world-class skills, are the ideal fit.
Where this role could lead to
There is huge opportunity to expand and grow within the organisation, for the right candidate this could mean the potential to spearhead a strategic imperative that will enable the company to make a significant impact on the use of biometric data within the international development sector, and beyond. You will lead the way in ensuring that our projects, which reach millions of people, will be deployed to the highest possible privacy standard.
You will become a key advocate, pushing the entire international development and biometrics industry to follow our example and improve privacy standards in their own programmes.
