Due to sustained demand across its data protection function, additional interim support is required to ensure Subject Access Requests and other Individual Rights Requests are managed compliantly, accurately and within statutory timescales.The organisation operates in a complex, fast‑paced environment where information rights, transparency and lawful data handling are critical. This assignment sits within an established data protection and access to information team and is focused on delivery rather than strategy. Your new role This is a hands‑on Data Protection Analyst role, suited to a contractor with strong, practical experience processing Subject Access Requests. You will take ownership of a live caseload of SARs and related individual rights requests, managing them end to end from receipt through to lawful disclosure. The work involves locating, reviewing, redacting, and preparing information in accordance with the UK GDPR and Data Protection Act 2018. You will regularly handle complex and high‑volume requests, some of which involve highly sensitive or emotionally challenging content, requiring sound judgement, attention to detail, and a calm, proportionate approach.
