Data Protection & Information Governance Manager (Hybrid) – Lancashire – up to £46,000

I’m working with a tenant-focused housing organisation in Lancashire who are looking to hire a Data Protection & Information Governance Manager on a permanent basis.

This role can be a step up opportunity for someone operating at an Officer level, with the will & want to progress their career.

This is a genuinely hands-on role covering UK GDPR / ICO guidance, information governance, and wider compliance activity—working closely with a senior lead who holds the DPO responsibility.

Key focus areas:

  • Managing DSARs end‑to‑end (including redactions/exemptions) and staying on top of statutory deadlines
  • Owning/maintaining ROPA, DPIA and DSA registers
  • Supporting data breach investigations and escalation/reporting where required
  • Delivering training/awareness and advising on transparency/FOI-style requests (e.g., STAIRS)
  • Keeping policies/procedures current and well-governed

Package:

  • Permanent, full-time

This is a brand new role which has formed at an exciting time. The organisation is going through a big technology change, which will see the implementation of redacting software & new case management system.
