Job Description About our Senior Legal Counsel – Data Privacy role:
To advise and provide guidance to Sage colleagues on data protection issues on a global basis. In particular, the role will focus on support for Sage colleagues working in product development and engineering, and sales and marketing, plus assistance to the Commercial and Product Legal teams with advice in connection with complex privacy legal matters (including regional Commercial Legal team members), and privacy risk incident management.
The role will report into the EVP Deputy General Counsel, and will involve close collaboration with other members of the Data Privacy Legal team, and the Sage legal team more widely.
You'll collaborate closely with the Commercial and Product Legal teams to offer expert advice on complex privacy legal matters and assist in privacy risk incident management. Additionally, you'll play a key role in developing, implementing, and maintaining policies, procedures, and processes to ensure Sage's compliance with data protection legal requirements.

The successful candidate will also be required to work from the office 3 times a week.

Additionally, you'll contribute to maintaining Sage's data privacy compliance framework, including policy review and development, while supporting the creation of external-facing materials such as privacy notices and consent notices.

Furthermore, you'll lead advisory efforts on cookies, similar technologies, and digital advertising, contribute to the management of the data privacy operating model, act as a key contact for EU local legal and data privacy matters, and develop and deliver training materials to colleagues across Sage.
