Eligibility, licensing, and location restrictions can change. Always confirm details on the source posting before applying.

Why this is worth applying to

Worth applying only if you already have substantial ISO 27001, GDPR and DPO/security compliance experience; clinical experience alone is unlikely to be enough. It is a strong route for clinicians who have moved into health-tech privacy, security or compliance leadership.

Who should apply

Clinicians with prior DPO, privacy, information security, compliance or clinical informatics leadership experience in health tech, NHS, pharma or regulated healthcare; especially those with ISO 27001, GDPR and AI governance exposure.

CV angle

Frame clinical experience around handling sensitive health data, confidentiality, regulatory compliance, risk assessment, incident escalation, audit readiness and cross-functional stakeholder management. Quantify any ISMS, GDPR/DPIA, DPA, penetration-test remediation, AI governance or board-reporting exposure, and do not claim security certifications or experience you do not have.

Skills to highlight

  • ISO 27001 ISMS implementation and maintenance
  • UK/EU GDPR and DPO statutory duties
  • Privacy risk assessment and DPIAs
  • Security incident management and remediation
  • Vulnerability management and penetration-test tracking
  • Third-party/DPA and client assurance reviews
  • AI governance and ISO 42001 readiness
  • Executive and board-level risk reporting
