At LYNX, protecting the personal data of our clients and employees is essential to maintaining trust. As a Medior Privacy Officer, you help strengthen and continuously improve LYNX's privacy framework across all international branches.
Working closely with the International Privacy Officer, Data Protection Officer (DPO), Information Security Officer, Legal, and business stakeholders, you advise the business on GDPR-related matters, identify privacy risks, and ensure privacy requirements are embedded into business processes.
This is a hands-on role combining governance, compliance, and stakeholder collaboration. You will support privacy-by-design initiatives, coordinate Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs), maintain privacy documentation, assist with data breach management, and promote privacy awareness throughout the organization.
If you enjoy translating privacy legislation into practical business solutions within an international FinTech environment, we'd love to hear from you.
