*Contract:* Full time and Permanent
*Salary: *£50k to £60k depending on experience.
*Reporting to:* People and Operations Manager
*About Us*
*Go-Ahead London* is the capital’s largest bus operator, employing over 8,000 colleagues and operating around a quarter of London’s iconic red bus network on behalf of Transport for London.
With a complex, people-focused operation spanning multiple depots, systems, and partners, protecting personal data is critical to everything we do.
*The Role*
We are seeking an experienced Data Protection Manager to lead and continuously improve our GDPR and privacy framework across Go-Ahead London.
This role goes beyond compliance. You will act as a trusted adviser, auditor, and champion of privacy by design, ensuring personal data is handled lawfully, securely, and proportionately — while enabling the business to operate effectively.
You will work closely with senior leaders, depot teams, Group colleagues, and external partners, helping embed a strong data protection culture across a large, operationally complex organisation.
*Key Responsibilities*
* Lead GDPR compliance across Go-Ahead London, covering both paper and electronic records, systems, and behaviours.
* Conduct regular audits across depots and Head Office functions, providing clear, practical recommendations and reporting outcomes to senior leaders and the Board.
* Maintain oversight of personal data breaches, ensuring prompt notification, appropriate investigation, regulatory decision-making, and preventative action.
* Own and maintain the organisation’s data map, data inventory, and records of processing activities, working closely with HR, IT, Finance, and Operations.
* Review and advise on Data Sharing Agreements and third-party processing arrangements, ensuring appropriate legal basis, safeguards, and contractual protections.
* Support Subject Access Requests and individual rights requests, ensuring responses are accurate, timely, and auditable.
* Provide expert advice on Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs), supporting project teams to identify risk, mitigation, and lawful processing from the outset.
* Oversee GDPR training and awareness, working with HR and Learning teams to ensure completion, quality, and accurate recording.
* Act as a key liaison with Group Data Protection and Information Security colleagues, supporting continuous improvement in information security practices.
* Ensure GDPR-related policies, standards, and guidance remain current, practical, and aligned with legal and regulatory change.
* Provide clear, confident challenge to senior stakeholders where privacy or information risk is identified.
* Represent Go-Ahead London at internal and external GDPR / privacy forums as required.
*What We’re Looking For*
* Strong experience in data protection, privacy, or information governance within a complex organisation.
* A practical understanding of GDPR, data protection principles, and risk-based compliance.
* Excellent communication skills, with the confidence to influence and challenge constructively at all levels.
* Experience auditing systems, processes, and behaviours, with the ability to translate findings into improvement.
* The ability to work independently across multiple locations and manage competing priorities.
* A collaborative, approachable style with a clear focus on enabling the business to do the right thing.
*Desirable:*
* Experience working in regulated, operational, or multi-site environments.
* Exposure to information security, access controls, or assurance frameworks.
* Professional certification in data protection or privacy (e.g. IAPP, BCS) or equivalent experience.
*Why Join Us?*
* A role with real influence across a major London employer
* The opportunity to shape privacy standards in a complex, people-focused operation
* Flexible working arrangements to support work-life balance
* A collaborative, values-driven organisation committed to doing the right thing
