Job Introduction

Information Governance Officer

£45,091 - £51,536 per annum

Full time, Permanent

We currently have a rare and exciting opportunity for an experienced Information Governance Officer to join our small and friendly Information Governance (IG) Team. We pride ourselves on providing high quality support to employees of the Council, Solihull Community Housing and Schools in all matters relating to Information Governance.

Within this critical role, you will research, interpret and apply a range of complex IG legislation relating to Data Protection, Freedom of Information, Environmental Information Regulations, Records Management and Information Security, as well as giving advice and guidance to support employees at all levels to understand and apply the legislation, various standards and official guidance appropriately and help ensure they remain legally compliant.

Other duties include managing information requests made by members of the public under the Freedom of Information Act, Environmental Information Regulations and also subject access requests made under Data Protection legislation.

You will also assess and advise on information risks, completing data protection impact assessments and investigating data breaches.

You will need an Information Governance qualification in Data Protection or Freedom of Information, or you will be able to demonstrate equivalent knowledge gained through extended relevant experience.

You will also have:

Knowledge and experience of working with a large range of relevant Information Governance legislation and precedents.
The ability to provide timely and innovative solutions to sometimes complex or unusual problems.
The ability to proactively keep up to date with changes to legislation, case law, official guidance, decision notices and any other IG matters and may impact upon local practice and procedures.
Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, to build good working relationships with a range of stakeholders.
Experience of designing and delivering training for a variety of audiences.

As well as bringing your own knowledge and experience to the IG Team, you will benefit from working alongside other experienced IG Officers, a Records Manager and Information Governance Manager, who will always be available to offer support or collaboration.

We also offer:

A range of flexible working options including a flexi-time scheme
Generous annual leave entitlements with the opportunity to purchase up to 10-days additional leave per year
Access to our Employee Assistance Programme – a 24-hour independent, free and confidential advice and support service
Family and carer friendly policies
Access to the Local Government Pension Scheme
Employee benefits including staff discounts, subsidised travel passes and Cycle 2 Work Scheme

We recognise that work is what you do and not necessarily where you go. Therefore, we offer the opportunity to work from home for part of the week, with a requirement to work part of the week in our conveniently located offices in Solihull town centre.

To apply, please click on the link below. Your application should be in your own words and reflect your own lived and personal experiences.

If you have a specific question regarding this post, please contact:

Nigel Parr – Corporate Information Governance Manager - [email protected]

Closing Date: 23 August 2026

Interview Date: Week commencing 31 August 2026

As part of the assessment process, candidates will be required to complete a relevant work-related assessment.

Please note: As part of our compliance and safer recruitment requirements, references will be sought for all successful candidates following interview. A reference must be provided by the candidate’s current or most recent employer or training provider. Where this does not cover the last three years, an additional reference will be required from the candidate’s next most recent employer or training provider. Posts subject to statutory regulation may require additional scrutiny. Personal/character references will only be accepted in exceptional circumstances.

Solihull Council is proud to be an Equal Opportunities Employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees - a place where we can all be ourselves and succeed on merit.

Solihull Council has a responsibility for, and is committed to, safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and adults at risk, and requires all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
