About iliomad Health Data
At iliomad Health Data, we specialise in delivering privacy solutions tailored for Biotech, Healthtech, and Healthcare institutions. Our core expertise lies in navigating complex privacy regulations including EU GDPR, UK GDPR, HIPAA, CCPA, CPRA, Swiss FADP, and the EU AI Act in the context of clinical research and health data governance. We operate across 75+ countries, serving sponsors, CROs, medical device manufacturers, and health technology companies.
We are not a law firm. We are an operational compliance partner. Instead of saying "you should do this," we say "you must do this and here is how."
iliomad is seeking a Data Compliance Associate to support its growth and strengthen service delivery across its client portfolio.
We offer a full-time position under an Employer of Record (EOR) structure, allowing candidates to be employed locally while working within our international team. Compensation is competitive, aligned with local market standards, and calibrated to the candidate's experience and qualifications.
The Role
Reporting to a Senior Leader, the Associate will serve as Project Manager for a portfolio of client compliance programmes spanning clinical trials, medical devices, IVD, and health data platforms. This is an execution-oriented role requiring both technical depth and strong client relationship skills.
The Associate level at iliomad carries direct client accountability. You will be expected to manage engagements autonomously, deliver high-quality outputs, and represent iliomad in client-facing settings with credibility and professionalism.
Key Responsibilities
- Serve as Project Manager for client compliance mandates, coordinating deliverables, timelines, and client communications
- Review data protection language in clinical development documentation including study protocols, Informed Consent Forms, information notices, and CTIS GDPR statements
- Conduct contractual reviews covering Clinical Trial Agreements, Data Processing Agreements, and vendor agreements
- Draft and maintain mandatory documentation including Records of Processing Activities, designation letters, and SOPs
- Conduct Data Protection Impact Assessments across clinical, device, and platform contexts
- Manage Data Subject Access Requests and data breach response on behalf of clients
- Perform regulatory formalities including DPO registrations and authority notifications
- Organise and lead monthly DPO meetings with clients
- Deliver staff training programmes on EU GDPR, UK GDPR, HIPAA, and sector-specific obligations
- Conduct gap analyses and audit readiness assessments
- Contribute to iliomad's internal knowledge base, compliance wiki, and thought leadership outputs
What We Are Looking For
- Minimum 3 to 5 years of experience in data protection, privacy compliance, or a related field
- Demonstrated ability to manage client relationships and compliance projects independently
- Strong technical knowledge of EU GDPR as the primary applicable framework, with working familiarity with UK GDPR, HIPAA, CCPA, CPRA, Swiss FADP, and the EU AI Act
- Background in life sciences, clinical research, or medical devices — this is essential, not a nice-to-have
- Familiarity with Good Clinical Practice and the regulatory landscape for clinical trials and medical devices
- Degree in Law, Data Protection, Information Security, or a related discipline
- Relevant certification (CDPO, CIPM, ISO 27001/27005 Lead Implementer or Auditor) is an asset
- Full professional proficiency in English; French is a strong advantage
- Comfortable with European travel
Key Attributes
Curiosity and rigour are the foundation of this role. We work in a complex, fast-moving regulatory environment where intellectual honesty, precision, and a proactive mindset matter more than seniority. We want someone who takes ownership, communicates clearly with clients, and contributes to making iliomad better not just someone who executes tasks.
