Job Description

ROLE SUMMARY: This is a rare opportunity to combine deep data protection expertise with broad legal leadership in a fast-growing, international education business. You will serve as the Group's Global Data Protection Officer while also acting as Head of Legal, working side by side with the Group General Counsel to manage and develop the legal function across the organisation. This is not a siloed DPO role. You will be the GC's right hand across the full range of legal matters the group faces, from commercial contracts to regulatory questions to strategic projects. If you thrive on breadth, autonomy, and building things, this role was designed for you.

Job Responsibility

  • Act as the Group's registered Data Protection Officer in the UK and oversee outsourced DPO and data protection service providers across other jurisdictions
  • Own and evolve a scalable, multi-jurisdictional data protection framework that delivers standardised baseline compliance while accommodating local requirements
  • Lead on DSARs, breach management, DPIAs, records of processing, and data protection training across the group
  • Advise the business on data protection matters relating to students, parents, and staff, including the handling of children's data and other special or higher-risk categories of personal data
  • Monitor regulatory developments (including emerging AI regulation) and translate them into practical guidance for the business
  • Partner with the Group General Counsel to manage, shape, and develop the legal function as it matures
  • Review, draft, and negotiate commercial contracts across a range of subject matter
  • Advise on general commercial legal matters including intellectual property, procurement, and supplier relationships
  • Support the GC on strategic and ad hoc legal projects as the business requires
  • Act as a trusted legal adviser to C-suite executives, Heads of School, and Regional CEOs and CFOs
  • Communicate legal and data protection risk clearly and practically to non-legal stakeholders at all levels
  • Build strong relationships across the business to ensure legal and data protection are seen as enablers, not blockers

Requirements

  • Qualified lawyer (UK or equivalent) with significant post-qualification experience in data protection
  • Proven track record of managing data protection compliance across multiple jurisdictions, including building scalable systems, processes, and governance frameworks
  • Experience with DSARs, breach management, DPIAs, and data protection training programmes
  • Strong commercial instinct and a healthy risk appetite: you give practical, proportionate advice that helps the business move forward
  • Comfortable reviewing and drafting commercial contracts and advising on general commercial legal questions
  • Excellent communicator who can translate complex legal and regulatory concepts for business stakeholders at all levels
  • Proactive, self-starting, and energised by creating and improving processes, structures, and ways of working
  • Genuinely excited about working across the full breadth of a legal function, not just data protection

Nice to have

  • Experience handling children's data or other higher-risk categories of personal data (e.g., health, education records)
  • Familiarity with emerging AI regulation and its practical implications
  • Experience in the education sector or other regulated, people-focused industries
  • CIPP/E, CIPM, or equivalent data protection certification
