About the role

  • Build and evolve Perk's privacy and AI governance programs to enable growth while keeping trust intact. Identify and assess privacy and AI risks, then partner with the right teams to tackle them. That includes collaborating with the Security team on data incident readiness, AI threats, simulations and response.
  • Manage our privacy and AI tooling stack (and the relationship with those vendors), including automation and integrations. You’ll keep policies and guidelines updated and handle day-to-day privacy inquiries - including DSR intake, responses, tracking, and escalation, and run core accountability activities like ROPAs, AI inventory, DPIAs/FRIAs, LIAs, TIAs, consent tracking, marketing opt-outs, and third-party due diligence.
  • Partner with the Privacy Counsel & DPO to turn regulatory updates into practical, scalable guidance. You’ll also track and report key program performance metrics, trends, and risks to senior stakeholders.
  • Keep our privacy and AI governance programs aligned to GDPR, the EU AI Act, and other applicable laws. You’ll also support ISO 27701/27001/42001/23894 internal and external audits, evidence collection, and ongoing maintenance.
  • Support privacy by design across product, engineering and marketing - clear guidance on data flows, retention, minimization, AI ethics, and default settings, so teams can ship with confidence, and we can detect and mitigate risks early.
  • Consolidate a Privacy Champions program to spread shared ownership across the company group (in collaboration with your Privacy & AI team colleagues). You’ll deliver training, comms, and knowledge resources that make privacy and AI governance feel real and approachable - so teams and users can easily self-serve curated information and make informed decisions about managing data.

Requirements

  • Passion for Privacy & AI in the evolving tech space. You’re excited about mastering these fields.
  • 2-5 years of experience in privacy, data protection, AI governance, compliance, information security, or a related field, ideally in a technology or SaaS environment.
  • Practical knowledge of key Privacy & AI regulations and frameworks.
  • Proven track record owning privacy operations end‑to‑end with no to minimal supervision.
  • Ability to grasp complex technical concepts. Think data flows, system architectures, and anonymisation. You don’t have to be an expert on these, but you will need to fluently communicate with and advise engineers on product development.
  • Excellent problem‑solving and sound risk judgment. You will be tasked with making decisions with limited oversight.
  • Clear, concise communication tailored to technical and non‑technical audiences; strong drafting skills for policies, guidance, and training.
  • Self‑starter, able to prioritize impact over effort / able to say “no” to less important things for the company, bias for action.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Law, Information Technology, or a related field - you don’t have to be a lawyer.
  • Recognized certifications such as CIPP, CIPM, CIPT, or AIGP.
  • Hands-on experience with privacy and governance platforms and automation (e.g., BigID, OneTrust, TrustArc) and basic privacy tooling familiarity. You don’t have to be an expert in any one tool, but have the curiosity to learn new tools.
  • Exposure to standards and audits, especially ISO 27701 and 27001.
