Who you are

- An effective multi-tasker who operates with calm even in a highly demanding and fast-paced environment

Our take
Eye-watering fines for privacy and compliance violations have pushed data privacy and data management high up on the agenda of the world's biggest companies. OneTrust's privacy platform exists to help these companies ensure they are compliant with local laws wherever they operate, with a suite of tools to speed up compliance processes and build "privacy by design".
The company has set about making its offering the most comprehensive on the market, largely through acquisitions such as that of Climate Action and Carbon Management Platform Planetly. Successfully cementing itself as the leading body in trust intelligence - as well as gaining accolades such as ranking in the 2022 Forbes Cloud 100 - has ensured it the reputation to pursue further expansion, as it adds further innovative capabilities such as Certification Automation to its ecosystem.
