Data is a vital asset to any organisation, and the trust recognises the importance of robust data collection, and reporting of data in meaningful ways, compiling complex data sets. The trust has a range of systems which are used for data collection, and these will be reviewed in line with the trust’s vision and strategy to harmonise systems ensuring ease of use, fit for purpose, and standardised reporting.
It is the role of the data compliance officer to oversee data systems across the trust, ensuring data compliance within our governance frameworks and to support users with access and day-to-day usage advice. Primarily, this will be young people data systems and other monitoring and tracking systems. Alongside this, the role will support other areas which use data systems, such as human resources, finance, and other operational departments.
This role ensures excellent data governance, legal compliance, and harnesses data insights to improve academy performance, supporting positive outcomes for all young people.
The role will be required to have and develop in-depth knowledge over data required for young people with special educational needs and disabilities, and the accurate recording of key information such as health and medical conditions to ensure all employees can best support our young people in safe environments.
This role will initially support maternity cover for a member of the data services team, but after the maternity period, the role will be linked to support dedicated academies as their data compliance officer.
