We believe that we're only as good as our people.

Together, we're building an inclusive, open, and high-performance culture where you can truly be yourself and where your contributions are celebrated. We encourage you to be bold, think big, and challenge the status quo. So when you ask yourself, “What’s different about Deloitte?” The answer resides in the many specific examples of where we have helped our clients, our people, and society to achieve remarkable goals, solve complex problems, and make meaningful progress.

That’s what makes us truly different at Deloitte. Not how big we are, where we reside, or what services we offer. What really defines us is our purpose to make an impact that matters in the world. What impact will you make?

• Provide support in guiding business and technology partners on data privacy and data protection matters and methodologies.

• Work with proposition owners to enhance our tools, methodologies and knowledge assets; create innovative new service offerings based on market needs and support to ensuring our leading market position as innovators in the cyber regulation and technology space.

Your background:

• A Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in IT, Business IT, or similar education


• Some prior experience in delivering project work, ideally to clients and stakeholders


• Strong interest in the entire ecosystem of information and data protection e.g. data flows, IT landscape


• Affinity to design, develop, implement and maintain information protection strategies and frameworks


• Knowledge of Data Privacy regulations and requirements


• Interest in methodologies regarding Data Loss Prevention, Digital Rights Management, Data Atomization, Data Classification, Tokenization and encryption, data masking


• A passion for information and cyber security beyond privacy and data protection e.g. in application protection, identity and access management, incident response, vulnerability management


• Strong interpersonal skills and capability to develop strong relationships.


• Certifications such as CISSP, CIPP/E, CIPM, CIPT, PMP or others indicating specialist capabilities, are a plus


• Fluency in both English and German are required. French skills would be a plus

How you will grow:

At Deloitte, you can drive your career on every level. In addition to challenging and meaningful work, you’ll be able to participate in a range of diversity and inclusion initiatives and make an impact not only with our clients, but with your peers and society at large. You will also find the support, coaching, and training it takes to advance your career. Your development is important to us and to the firm, so you’ll have the opportunity to grow through every step of your journey at Deloitte.
