• Develop an automation-first or automation-empowered approach to routine legal and privacy compliance tasks, ensuring efficiency through well-designed processes and internal or external tech tools
• Conduct privacy impact assessments, legitimate interest balance assessments, and other privacy and legal assessments as required
• Work closely with other Docplanner lawyers, InfoSecurity professionals and Risk experts at global and local level, project-manage the implementation of new initiatives and controls, and integrate best practices into internal operations
• Design and provide training to the Docplanner workforce
• Identify, flag, measure, and document legal risks and support the group-wide privacy risk management
• Draft and review third party contracts with large vendors and enterprise clients or partners
• Support the Chief Legal and Risk Officer on due diligence activities in the fields of privacy and digital regulations, as well as in the design and execution of the privacy and digital regulations compliance roadmap

• Detail-oriented, well-organised and hands-on, ready to jump in and “get your hands dirty” as required, able to be a “doer” as much as a project manager and mentor
