  • Configure, deploy and optimise DLP policies, rules and alerts across key data protection platforms, including Netskope, Microsoft Purview, Wiz and Kiteworks, ensuring alignment with business and regulatory requirements.
  • Drive data discovery, classification and labelling initiatives, identifying sensitive data across the organisation and implementing appropriate protection measures.
  • Integrate DLP controls with the wider security environment to deliver effective and comprehensive protection of customer and business data.

  • Partner with Cyber Security, Information Security, Enterprise Technology, Legal, Compliance, Data Governance and Privacy teams to embed data protection best practices and ensure regulatory compliance.
  • Develop and maintain DLP configurations, standards, procedures and documentation, while identifying opportunities to enhance controls as technologies, threats and regulations evolve.
  • Work closely with platform vendors and third-party partners to resolve issues, optimise platform capabilities and support ongoing improvements to Compare the Market's data security posture.

 
What we’re looking for: 
 
  • Previous experience administering, configuring and optimising Netskope in a production environment. Netskope experience is an essential requirement for this role.

  • Knowledge of cloud security posture management and risk remediation, ideally with experience using Wiz.
  • Experience investigating DLP alerts, supporting incident response activities and producing reporting for stakeholders and auditors.
  • Strong scripting and automation skills using technologies such as Python, PowerShell, Bash/Shell, Regex and YAML/JSON.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to independently lead multiple DLP projects and initiatives.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to engage both technical and non-technical audiences.
