Data Protection & Information Governance Manager

I'm working with a tenant-focused housing organisation in Lancashire who are looking to hire a Data Protection & Information Governance Manager on a permanent basis.

This role can be a step up opportunity for someone operating at an Officer level, with the will & want to progress their career.

This is a genuinely hands-on role covering UK GDPR / ICO guidance, information governance, and wider compliance activity-working closely with a senior lead who holds the DPO responsibility.

• Managing DSARs end-to-end (including red actions/exemptions) and staying on top of statutory deadlines
• Owning/maintaining ROPA, DPIA and DSA registers
• Supporting data breach investigations and escalation/reporting where required
• Delivering training/awareness and advising on transparency/FOI-style requests (e.g., STAIRS)
• Keeping policies/procedures current and well-governed

• £46,000
• Hybrid working
• Permanent, full-time

This is a brand new role which has formed at an exciting time. The organisation is going through a big technology change, which will see the implementation of redacting software & new case management system.
