What does this job entail?
KBC is a digital frontrunner. KBC Mobile was recently named the best mobile banking app worldwide, and our data-driven strategy aims to provide our customers with the very best service. Of course, our customers expect us to treat their data respectfully, and we do this in line with all regulations concerning data and privacy protection. As a Compliance Data Protection Adviser, you will contribute to these efforts. Together with your colleagues in the Compliance Data Protection team, you will help KBC lead the way when it comes to data protection.
What do we expect from you?
- You will monitor relevant legislation and new developments regarding the processing of personal data and privacy laws.
- You will advise on implementation within KBC and monitor compliance across all of KBC's activities.
- You will advise on new products and activities from a data protection perspective and advise on the implementation of Data Protection Impact Assessments.
- You will support commercial line management in improving employee awareness and assist in the development of training programmes.
- You will develop internal policies and revise them where necessary.
Your key strengths?
- You have good knowledge of privacy regulations and have three to five years of practical experience in data and privacy protection.
- You have a master's degree in a field such as law, economics or IT.
- You are highly driven and fully committed.
- You have strong critical thinking and analytical skills, you can think outside the box and you take a solution-oriented approach.
- You can communicate clearly in English, French and Dutch.
- You can be assertive when necessary and can persuade others in a diplomatic manner.
- You can unite and lead people to achieve a common goal.
- You don’t have any problem with working independently, though you also enjoy working with others and achieving goals as a team.
What can we offer you?
- At KBC you can expect superb onboarding, very friendly colleagues and a stimulating atmosphere at work.
- Throughout your career at KBC we will encourage you to continually grow as a person and as a professional. You can follow training courses to further hone your hard and soft skills.
- Our offices are easy to reach by public transport, and you can work from home some of the time if you prefer.
- Flexible working hours help you to establish a good work-life balance.
- We will offer you a permanent contract and a competitive salary, with additional fringe benefits. Sounds familiar? Of course, because that’s something you read in every job ad. However, KBC makes the difference for you by providing an extensive flex package. It’s too comprehensive to explain here: we will be happy to discuss the various benefits – large and small – with you during your interview.
Can you help us make the difference?
You will join a highly motivated and varied team in Group Compliance in the Data Protection Unit. Surrounded by great colleagues and involved in challenging projects, you can grow in various directions.
