Do you have an interest in data protection, would you be interested in learning more about how this topic is handled in a school setting and to support schools in ensuring they are compliant with current data protection policies, and the GDPR?

Whether you are new to working in education or have been in the industry for many years; this challenging new role will give you an exclusive insight into the everyday issues facing school staff around compliance of the 2018 Data Protection Act (and associated UK GDPR legislation). With every establishment we support having such unique ways of working, you will support the ICT Service Data Protection and MIS consultant with ensuring that not only the everyday questions are answered effectively and efficiently in line with current legislation, but also to take responsibility for logging, auditing, and monitoring a school’s level of data compliance using our internal systems and resources.

The ICT Service is a team of 45 staff working with schools in many ways. You would be part of the Learning and Management Consultant team eventually providing an initial point of contact for all the schools who currently subscribe to our DPO Service. You will also provide support (or cover) for associated training sessions as required.

As well as the front-end support, there will be essential administrative duties that will need to be completed to ensure the service provided remains to the high quality our subscribers have come to expect. You will also be tasked with contributing to mailshots and newsletters as required.

We expect that all candidates will either have a current approved data protection-based qualification or where necessary will be willing to complete this in their first year of appointment.

It is essential that you have access to your own vehicle as travel will be required.
