Current Job Position Available:

Privacy Consultant

INQ Consulting Corporation is a premier consulting firm specializing in all aspects of data compliance, focusing on data governance, privacy, cyber readiness, and emerging technologies.

​

INQ is seeking an individual who has privacy experience to support our privacy consulting projects and other operational privacy initiatives for our clients. The successful candidate will provide privacy support to our clients and work on a range of projects that span our service lines in Canada and internationally. This position would be ideal for an individual seeking to leverage their experience in privacy and expand or develop their consulting skills. The position is remote, but the ideal candidate is in North America.

​

Description of the ideal candidate:

​

The ideal candidate is entrepreneurial, inquisitive and excited about our mission to help our clients innovate responsibly and simplify the complex. We are passionate about data, and the right candidate for this role will be too.

You have experience providing privacy advice in various industries, but experience with health information privacy is a must. You’ve worked internally as a privacy officer, or you have had experience as a privacy consultant in a reputable consulting firm. You’re an excellent writer, researcher, and you think strategically. Though you may not write computer code, you can analyze IT systems to perform privacy impact assessments (PIAs) and have done so in past roles. You can draft compliant and straightforward policies and procedures that meet client needs.

You are organized, motivated, and self-directed. You love to solve problems and find innovative solutions. You like working with others, but you’re also comfortable working independently. You’re interested in being active in the privacy community, and you have already started to develop a presence.
