Data Privacy and Cybersecurity Lawyer - Leeds

Data Privacy and Cybersecurity Lawyer - Leeds

Our client has an impressive global footprint working for clients from the UK, Europe, Asia and America, across a wide range of sectors including retailers, manufacturers, sports clients and financial services providers.

They are looking for a lawyer who will be working as part of a pan-European and global Data Privacy and Cybersecurity team, in a multi-cultural, international and challenging environment. The role involves working on a variety of GDPR-related and e-privacy projects, and the successful candidate will be involved in tasks such as gap-analysis reporting, preparing presentations for clients, reviewing documents, advising on compliance issues, helping clients respond to data subject requests, dealing with regulatory complaints and assisting with data breach reporting.

The ideal candidate will have worked as part of a team on data protection, though our client appreciates that most candidates will not have worked in firms which have a specialist team in this area. Therefore, candidates who can demonstrate that they have done some work in this area with supervision will still be considered for the role, as will those from Intellectual Property backgrounds.

Location is not an issue for our client as whilst this role is nominally based from Leeds, finding the right candidate is more important than you attending the office day to day. Therefore, they will be flexible regarding working arrangements and will tailor the role to the particular person. There will also be ample opportunity for candidates who enjoy getting out the office and meeting people, to do so, both nationally and internationally.

An excellent opportunity at a leading international law firm, to join a team specialising in a growing and interesting area of law.



Brooke Thornham Consulting advertisements use PQE levels purely as a guide to the level of experience required for the role and this does not prohibit applications from candidates who are able to demonstrate the necessary skills and experience. We aim to respond to enquiries as soon as possible but if we have not contacted you within 5 days then unfortunately on this occasion your application has not quite met the requirements of our client closely enough.
