Hello. We’re Virgin Australia. We’re the airline that’s always done things a little different. Our way. The Virgin way. We’re on a mission to make flying better than ‘nice’. And to do that, it takes a team of talented people who are passionate about customer experience, doing the right thing always, with a focus on safety - in the air, on the ground and in our workplaces.

**Who we’re looking for**:
We are looking for a pragmatic and high performing privacy leader who thrives in a dynamic and fast-moving environment and has experience advising all levels of management and leading a privacy team. You may be an experienced privacy lawyer, privacy officer or privacy professional.

**You’ll be great in this role if you**:

- Have at least 10 years’ experience working in privacy or a combination of privacy, legal, compliance or data governance roles.
- Have a deep understanding of privacy and data protection laws and regulations, privacy management best practices, data breach response activities and ethical principles and standards
- Have a strong commercial mindset with the confidence and ability to influence to establish effective working relationships with senior executive leaders
- Have a demonstrated ability to find value enhancing compliance solutions that can be effectively operationalised
- Have experience investigating and responding to complex privacy incidents and complaints
- Have experience leading a high-performing privacy or similar team
- Enjoy working cross-functionally with technical and non-technical teams
- Have a strong drive to develop a detailed understanding of aviation and loyalty, and associated technology and data processing activities
- Possess outstanding written and verbal communication skills with the ability to influence at a senior level and articulate complex concepts simply
- Relevant higher education degree (essential)
- Bachelor of laws or equivalent (desirable)
- Current legal practising certificate (desirable)
- Recognised privacy, information technology, data or AI governance related certification or degree (desirable)

**What you’ll get from us**:
We’re committed to looking after you, with some of the best benefits and conditions in the industry - including (but not limited to):

- Heavily discounted air travel for you and your loved ones (including $1000 worth of travel credits per year)
