Position Summary

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Data Protection Officer – Submarines to join the team in Derby.

As Data Protection Officer, you will report directly to the Head of Resilience & Security Rolls-Royce Submarines Limited working closely with the Central Data Privacy Team supporting the organisation in demonstrating accountability and maintaining compliance with applicable data protection requirements.

The role is advisory and monitoring in nature. The DPO informs and advises the organisation, monitors compliance, provides guidance on Data Protection Impact Assessments, cooperates with the Information Commissioner’s Office and acts as a contact point for data subjects and the regulator.

The DPO is appointed on the basis of professional qualities, expert knowledge of data protection law and practices, and the ability to fulfil the tasks required by the UK GDPR.

What you will be doing

  • Inform and advise the management and employees of their obligations under the UK GDPR, the Data Protection Act 2018 and other applicable data protection requirements.
  • Monitor compliance with data protection law and internal group and local policies, including the assignment of responsibilities, awareness-raising, training and audits.
  • Provide advice where requested in relation to Data Protection Impact Assessments and monitor performance.
  • Cooperate with the Information Commissioner’s Office and act as the contact point for regulatory matters, including prior consultation where applicable.
  • Act as an accessible contact point for data subjects on matters relating to the processing of their personal data and the exercise of their rights.
  • Advise on privacy governance, records of processing activities, data subject rights processes, personal data breach handling, retention, international transfers and processor oversight.
  • Escalate material privacy risks, unresolved compliance gaps and significant incidents to the appropriate management level.
  • Work alongside the Resilience & Security leadership team on wider team activities.

Position Qualifications:

At Rolls-Royce we put safety first, do the right thing, keep it simple and make a difference. These principles form the behaviours that guide us and are an essential component of our assessment process. They are the fundamental qualities that we seek for all roles and for this role we are looking for someone with:

  • Strong knowledge of the UK GDPR, the Data Protection Act 2018 and relevant regulatory guidance.
  • Practical experience in privacy governance, compliance monitoring, risk management and stakeholder advisory work.
  • Ability to assess complex processing operations and provide clear, risk-based recommendations.
  • Be able to act with independence and integrity.
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to translate legal requirements into practical business controls.
  • Experience with DPIAs, privacy notices, data subject rights, breach response, vendor assessments and records of processing activities.
  • Knowledge of MoD Security and Information Policies
  • Experience of government security organisations
  • Extensive knowledge of security and safety controls associated with Nuclear Licensed or authorised sites

Please be aware that the priority will be given to employees identified as being at high risk. The professional level and the salary of the position will be dependent on the skills and experience of the successful candidate. It is advised that you inform your current manager of your application for this role.

We are an equal opportunities employer. We’re committed to developing a diverse workforce and an inclusive working environment. We believe that people from different backgrounds and cultures give us different perspectives. And the more perspectives we have, the more successful we’ll be. By building a culture of respect and appreciation, we give everyone who works here the opportunity to realise their full potential.

To work for the Rolls-Royce Submarines Business an individual has to hold a minimum of an Security Check (SC) clearance without any caveats to that clearance. Rolls-Royce will support the application for Security Clearance if the individual does not currently already have this in place.

Due to the nature of work the Business conducts and the protection of certain assets a person has to be a UK national or in MoD approved cases a Dual National from a non ITAR country.
