Data Protection Administrator
About organisation / project
Read Easy UK is a national charity which provides free, confidential one-to-one reading coaching for adults from trained volunteers, through locally-run, affiliated volunteer groups. This vacancy is based in the Merseyside Group which was established in August 2021. We are currently recruiting volunteers to support readers and the management team.
If you have an eye for detail, and enjoy working alongside a diverse range of people, the Data Protection Administrator liaises with members of the Team to make sure that all personal data is stored according to the Data Protection Policy and generally oversees that the group’s records are kept correctly and securely.
The Data Protection Administrator is a key role and will ensure that the group is compliant with the Data Protection Policy and volunteers are aware of and receive annual refresher training in Data Protection.
It is an excellent opportunity to gain experience and confidence in adhering to the Data Protection Policies and procedures and managing personal data.
Key to this is an open attitude that encourages two-way communication and willingness to ask for ands offer support to the Team. A non-judgemental attitude and respect for others, with a commitment to equality and diversity, so that you can make everyone feel valued and included.
Volunteering is an average of 3 hours per month.
