Offer description

Data Protection Officer Location: Glasgow or Edinburgh (hybrid) We're partnering with a respected Scottish law firm that's genuinely built around people, not process. They've made their name by blending sharp legal minds with a practical, human approach, and their Data Protection team is a big part of that story. They're now looking for a Data Protection Officer who's as comfortable untangling GDPR complexity as they are chatting with clients about real-world impact. You'll be the go-to expert for a range of organisations, acting as their outsourced DPO and helping them navigate privacy and compliance with confidence. It's a role with visibility, trust, and plenty of space to shape things your way. What you'll do Be the trusted advisor clients turn to for data protection and privacy guidance. Lead on all things GDPR, from data breaches and audits to policies and training. Build long-term client relationships that feel more like partnerships than projects. Roll up your sleeves with colleagues in commercial, IT, and risk to deliver joined-up advice. Share your knowledge through training sessions, webinars, and the occasional thought piece. What you'll bring Around 4 years in data protection, privacy, or information security. A data protection qualification such as CIPM or CIPP/E (or equivalent experience). The ability to turn complex regulations into plain English advice that clients can actually use. A calm, pragmatic style, you know when to be black-and-white and when to find the middle ground. Confidence with senior stakeholders and a natural way with people. Why it's worth a look You'll be joining a team that values balance, growth, and good humour as much as good work. Expect: 39 days' holiday (yes, really) Private medical, income protection & life cover Brilliant family and IVF leave policies Wellbeing and health cash plan Cycle to Work, gym and retail discounts Hybrid working and flexibility built in Plus, support for professional development and specialist accreditations If you're looking for a role that combines purpose, autonomy, and genuinely decent people, this could be the one.
