About the Role

Role type: 12 month fixed term contract, full time

The Privacy Reforms Program is an enterprise-wide three-year program that has been established in response to Privacy risks and regulations continuously evolving.

This role is pivotal to mitigating regulatory and reputational risk, ensuring compliance with upcoming reforms and securing ANZs position as a trusted and responsible custodian of personal information.
