WHAT YOU WILL DO:

Our client, a large global retailer, is building out a new Records of Processing Activities (ROPA) program to support its Canadian operations, largely from the ground up. In this role, you'll partner directly with the client's privacy engineering team and work across a wide range of business units to document how each line of business handles data, translating existing global ROPA structures into accurate, Canada-specific entries. If you have hands-on ROPA-building experience, are comfortable owning stakeholder relationships independently, and know how to stay organized across a large, multi-threaded workload, we want to speak with you. You will: Build out a Canadian ROPA program largely from the ground up, partnering directly with the client's privacy engineering team. Lead discovery and requirements-gathering sessions with business stakeholders across approximately 10-12 business units, documenting each unit's systems, processes, and data handling practices.

Proactively track and follow up on outstanding items across 24+ stakeholders, maintaining clear visibility into what's needed, from whom, and by when. Communicate directly and professionally with senior business stakeholders, including VP-level contacts, without requiring guidance on tone or approach. Participate in daily standups to report progress, plans, and blockers.Keep program leadership copied on business-facing communications for visibility, while operating independently day to day. Recognize appropriate scope boundaries for each ROPA entry, flagging items that extend beyond the intended process rather than pursuing them further.

ABOUT YOU:

Purposefulness: You have a desire to serve others with your skillset and an openness to continuous learning and growth. Ownership: You stick to your commitments, follow up with action, and seek clarity in communication & expectations. Your experience: Proven, hands-on experience building or maintaining ROPAs in a North American context (US, Canada, Mexico, or similar); ROPA structure and methodology are largely consistent across these markets. Prior experience operating at a senior analyst or engineer level within a privacy or GRC program, someone who has owned and driven ROPA-building work directly, not solely contributed as a business subject matter expert.

Strong organizational skills and self-driven follow-up habits, able to track outstanding items at a granular, per-entry level across many concurrent stakeholders. Familiarity with Quebec Law 25 or similar principle-based privacy regulations (e.g., GDPR) a plus, not required for candidates with strong general North American ROPA experience. Comfortable working independently with light day-to-day oversight, while maintaining consistent visibility and communication with leadership. We'd be especially excited to talk to you if you have: Experience standing up a ROPA or privacy program in a new market or region from scratch. Background working within large, complex, multi-line-of-business organizations. Experience in a consulting or client-facing capacity, comfortable being a trusted outside voice rather than an internal employee.
