Privacy Officer

As a Privacy Officer, you take the lead and ensure that the client has control over privacy matters. You are responsible for managing the Privacy Information Management System, providing input on organizational developments, and overseeing the handling of incidents and/or inquiries. You do this for multiple clients simultaneously.

What you do

You ensure that the client's privacy management is anchored in a continuous cycle, understand their biggest risks, and develop a treatment plan with the necessary measures.
