Full job description

On behalf of UKRI, we are looking for a Data Protection Specialist (Inside IR35) for an 8 month contract. This is a hybrid working role (occasional travel to Swindon required).

UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) is the national funding agency investing in science and research in the UK.

UKRI invests £8 billion of taxpayers’ money each year into research and innovation and the people who make it happen. They work across a huge range of fields - from biodiversity conservation to quantum computing, and from space telescopes to innovative health care. They give everyone the opportunity to contribute and to benefit, bringing together people and organisations nationally and globally to create, develop and deploy new ideas and technologies.

Job Purpose:
The Information Governance Optimisation project is the first phase of a multi-workstream cluster of initiatives designed to:

Strengthen UKRI’s information governance posture across the Group.
Reduce risk exposure associated with poor data handling, compliance breaches, and information loss.
Deliver a unified and consistent approach to information governance across UKRI, aligning policies, processes, and controls.
Protect UKRI from significant financial, operational, and reputational harm arising from regulatory non-compliance or data incidents.
Achieve compliance with UK Government standards and statutory obligations, including Data Protection Act 2018, UK GDPR, and Freedom of Information requirements.

The Info Gov Optimisation project comprises 4 discreet workstreams:

Privacy and consent management
Governance Automation
Physical records reduction
Electronic Documents and Records Management System

As a Data Protection Specialist, your main responsibilities will be:

Data protection compliance framework - defined policies, standards, and controls to ensure alignment with UK GDPR, Data Protection Act 2018, and UK Government requirements.
Data protection impact assessments (DPIAs) and risk outputs - completed or improved DPIA processes, templates, and assessments for high-risk processing activities.
Privacy and consent management design - structured approach to consent capture, management, and auditability aligned to the project’s privacy workstream.
Data handling and lifecycle standards - clear guidance on data classification, retention, minimisation, and secure disposal across physical and digital records.
Breach management and response processes - defined procedures for identifying, reporting, and managing data breaches, including escalation and regulatory reporting.
Integration with governance tooling (e.g. EDRMS, automation) - alignment of data protection requirements with systems and automation to ensure embedded, auditable compliance.

Essential:

Expert knowledge of data protection law - strong understanding of UK GDPR, Data Protection Act 2018, and associated regulatory guidance to ensure compliant design and advice.
Experience of data subject rights request handling, including the review of information, application of exceptions and redactions, and preparing responses.
Privacy-by-design and risk assessment - ability to embed data protection into solutions, including conducting and reviewing DPIAs and identifying mitigation actions.
Experience of data subject rights request handling, including the review of information, application of exceptions and redactions, and request preparation.
Policy and standards development - capability to create clear, practical data protection policies, standards, and controls aligned to organisational needs.
Data lifecycle and records management awareness - understanding of data classification, retention, minimisation, and disposal across physical and digital environments.
Stakeholder engagement and advisory skills - ability to work with legal, technical, and business teams to provide clear, actionable data protection guidance.
Incident and breach management expertise - skills in identifying, managing, and reporting data breaches, and improving organisational response processes.

Please be aware that this role can only be worked within the UK and not Overseas.
