Full job description

Job Overview

We are seeking an experienced attorney to be a member of our data privacy and digital regulatory legal practice focused on the EU region but with responsibilities outside the region as well providing strategic counsel across business segments and corporate functions.

The position carries both strategic and operational weight: shaping enterprise policy while managing day-to-day legal risk where compliance failures can trigger regulatory enforcement, loss of customer trust, or disruption to business operations. The role partners closely with functional and business teams to embed legal and compliance considerations into internal systems, product development, incident response, and business operations.

This position has no direct reports but operates at an executive level in the Law Department with significant influence on legal and business strategy.

You will report directly to our VP & GC Data Privacy, and you’ll work out of our Bracknell UK location on a hybrid work schedule.

Qualifications You Must Have

J.D. (or equivalent) and admitted to practice law in a jurisdiction in the EU.

10+ years of relevant legal experience, including significant experience advising on data privacy, data governance, and technology matters.

Demonstrated ability to synthesize complex issues quickly and communicate clearly to technical and non-technical audiences.

Proven subject matter expertise in data privacy law, data governance, and regulatory risk management.

We Value

Experience with global data privacy and data governance regulatory regimes, including the EU Data Act and GDPR.

Strong, independent leadership and the ability to set strategic direction and execute in a matrixed organization.
