Every role at CQC contributes to our mission. If you’re looking for a new role in Data & Insight that gives a true sense of meaning and purpose, then you’ve found it!

As our Confidentiality, Privacy and Security Advisor, you’ll work within the Enterprise Data and Reporting team to make sure CQC meets data protection and privacy laws, common‑law confidentiality, and best practice for security and privacy protection.

In the last 12 months, as the Confidentiality, Privacy and Security Advisor, you could have:

• Led a review of CQC’s policies and processes to ensure they meet GDPR and Data Protection Act requirements, reducing risk and improving compliance.
• Supported the safe sharing of sensitive information with other public bodies, enabling better collaboration while protecting people’s rights.
• Delivered practical training to staff across the organisation, helping teams understand and apply privacy principles in their daily work.

You’ll play a key role in the organisation by:

• Advising teams on privacy and security when new systems or processes are developed.
• Reviewing existing policies and procedures to keep them aligned with law and best practice.
• Providing expert guidance on information governance to managers and staff.
• Supporting leaders such as the SIRO, DPO and Caldicott Guardian with specialist advice.
• Helping design and deliver training that makes privacy simple and clear for everyone.

What we’re looking for in your application:

• Evidence of applying UK data protection and confidentiality law in practice, ideally in a public sector setting.
• Experience creating or improving policies and processes to meet legal and ethical standards for handling personal information.
• Ability to explain complex privacy rules in plain language, through training, guidance or advice to colleagues at all levels.

To progress your application, you’ll need to provide evidence of your right to work in the UK. Without a valid right to work you won’t be eligible for the role. We are unable to offer sponsorship for this role. Some roles may also be subject to a satisfactory DBS check.

If you apply, you’ll need to create a profile and complete an online application form. Your application will be completely anonymous. Please see information for applicants for more details on the process. We contact every applicant to let them know the outcome of their application, so you will hear from us whether or not you are shortlisted.

We know job descriptions can feel intimidating. Research shows they can cause some people to doubt whether they’re a good fit. This happens more often to people from under‑represented groups (e.g. ethnic minority backgrounds). If this role interests you, we encourage you to apply. Your unique perspective, skills, and experience could be exactly what we need.

We want every candidate to feel supported and able to do their best. If you need adjustments to our process, we’ll work with you to remove any barriers. Visit our accessibility page for more on this.

Please note, if you have previously informed us of adjustments you need for interview or within your role these are not carried over and must be discussed for each individual application you make.

We promote a workplace where fairness, respect and inclusion are a priority. Diverse teams make our work better, help us deliver our mission and make our culture stronger.

See our ED&I page for more about this.

AI tools can be great for research and refining ideas, but we want to learn about you. If you use AI or Chatbots to help you with your application, keep these points in mind:

• AI can support research, structuring and refining your writing, but your application must reflect your real skills and experience.
• Spell‑checking and condensing word counts are great ways to use AI effectively.
• Do not copy and paste AI generated answers. These will not help you stand out; remember we want to hear about your skills and experience.
• Providing false and insincere examples goes against our core values of honesty and integrity and may lead to your application being withdrawn or termination of your employment.
