Manage change without disruption. We supply data protection consultants for part-time or full-time cover, from a few weeks to several years.
Our qualified and experienced consultants will work directly with you to provide hands-on support when you need it most. We can:
This service is provided by IT Governance’s sister company DQM GRC, a specialist in data privacy compliance, data quality and tracking.
Our consultants are experienced in all areas of data protection implementation and can apply best-practice knowledge to your business.
These areas include:
Whereas consultancy projects typically have a defined scope and duration, your interim consultant can support a specific project or pick up a business-as-usual workload. By using a consultant, you gain specialist knowledge and reap the benefit of practical experience.
Many of our customers use this service to cover a skills gap in an area they have had trouble recruiting for. Previous customers of this service have been going through periods of change such as mergers, acquisitions, growth or team changes. Our data protection consultants also have experience preparing organisations for due diligence and data protection audits.
We do. Consultants will remain on our payroll and subject to our employment terms and conditions (although you may be able to vary these where appropriate) and will carry out the tasks assigned by you.
Interim and seconded consultants integrate into your team, carry out tasks assigned by you and report directly to you – but without adding to your headcount or requiring a lengthy recruitment process.
Interim and secondment contracts can last for as long as you need support – from a few weeks to years. For longer-term projects, we recommend refreshing your consultant at least every two years to ensure you – and they – continue to benefit from wider industry experience. For shorter-term projects, we can provide dedicated consultancy support.
We will work with you to understand the skills, experience and technical knowledge you require, then identify one or more suitable consultants for you to choose from.
Your chosen consultant will report directly to you for the duration of the engagement. You will be responsible for line managing them, but IT Governance is available to support you. Your consultant will be happy to provide training and knowledge transfer to your own team where appropriate.
Towards the end of your interim or secondment contract, you will be offered the opportunity to extend the engagement. If you choose not to do this, your consultant will provide you with handover notes and appropriate training for their successor if required.
This service is available Monday to Friday, 9:00 am – 5:00 pm, excluding public holidays.
