UK businesses face growing pressure to get data protection right, but hiring a full-time DPO isn't always practical. I step in as your dedicated outsourced DPO, giving you the expertise you need without the overhead. With over 10 years in data privacy, I've led GDPR compliance programmes from the ground up, most recently as Group Data Privacy Manager at Marston Holdings (1,000–5,000 employees), where I built the organisation's entire compliance framework when GDPR came into force in 2018. I currently serve as outsourced DPO for several clients across healthcare, enforcement, debt recovery, finance and sports/retail. Here's what I help clients with: • GDPR audits and gap assessments — finding where your biggest risks actually are • DPIAs — Data Protection Impact Assessments for new systems, processes, and products • Privacy policies, fair processing notices, and records of processing activities (RoPAs) • Data Subject Access Requests (DSARs) — handled correctly and on time • Incident response and ICO notifications • Ongoing DPO support — acting as your named DPO on a retainer basis • Body-worn video and CCTV governance frameworks • Staff training and building a culture of privacy across your organisation I work across sectors including healthcare, hospitality, sports, and financial services. Whether you need a one-off audit or want me as your long-term DPO, I'll make data protection practical, proportionate, and genuinely useful to your business.
