  • Relevant experience within a tech or digital business
  • US data privacy experience

 

    What you’ll be doing in the role 

  • Building a good understanding of Prolific’s operations and objectives, and how data privacy compliance and information security can support and enable these
  • Handling and responding to data subject rights requests (e.g., SARs, deletion requests, etc) within statutory timeframes, as well as other privacy-related queries, requests and complaints
  • Compiling and maintaining our Record of Processing Activities (ROPA) and other compliance documentation to support our accountability obligations
  • Completing Data Protection Impact Assessments and Legitimate Interests Assessments, and liaising with different stakeholders to obtain further information on data processing activities where necessary
  • Providing advice and guidance from the business on data privacy queries
  • Helping to develop, update and embed internal and external policies, guidelines, processes and practices relating to data privacy 
  • Assisting with the investigation and handling of personal data incidents, and associated record-keeping
  • Assisting with the provision of internal data privacy training and communications, including supporting and working closely with data privacy champions across the business
