We're Hiring: Data Protection & IT Compliance Officer (Pakistan, UK-aligned)

Build the gold standard of global compliance with us.

Aetheria Group is a fast-growing, government-backed global services company operating in the UK, Pakistan, and internationally — trusted to deliver healthcare services, social care services, financial, technology and marketing managed services, staffing, and compliant solutions at scale. We are now expanding our compliance operations as we handle live NHS patient data and scale our information governance to meet the highest UK regulatory standards.

This is your chance to own and lead data protection, cybersecurity, and NHS compliance for a group that is growing rapidly and making real impact across various services including health and public sector.

The Mission

We're looking for a Data Protection Officer (DPO) with strong IT and cybersecurity awareness to help ensure that our UK and Pakistan operations remain fully compliant with:

  • UK GDPR & the Data Protection Act 2018
  • ISO/IEC 27001 (Information Security)
  • NHS & public sector framework contracts

This is not a theoretical role — you'll shape real compliance architecture, advise our board, and protect real patient data.

What You'll Do

  • Advise on secure data handling between UK and Pakistan teams
  • Own Cyber Essentials & ISO27001 documentation and audit prep
  • Train staff, liaise with IT & oversee real-world compliance delivery
  • Support NHS DSPT submissions and liaise with NHS partners

You might be a compliance consultant, infosec analyst, NHS data lead, or DPO-in-waiting — but you're ready to step into an internationally-facing, board-level role where your ideas, judgment, and ethics shape how data is protected across borders.

We're looking for someone who has:

  • 3–7 years in data protection, compliance, or cybersecurity
  • UK GDPR knowledge with practical experience (DPIAs, RoPA, SARs)
  • Exposure to NHS or health sector data handling preferred
  • Awareness of Cyber Essentials and ISO 27001
  • Excellent written/spoken English and confident cross-team collaboration
  • Pakistan-based but responsive to UK time zones

Bonus if you hold:

  • CIPP/E, ISO 27001 Auditor/Implementer, NHS DSPT certifications
  • International exposure with UK government and NHS frameworks
  • Leadership visibility and board-level trust
  • Competitive local compensation
  • Growth path into global compliance leadership

Apply now: Submit your CV and a short cover letter

Shortlisted candidates will be invited to complete a practical assessment.
