Vacancy for Data Protection Specialists

The University of Hamburg, one of Germany's leading research universities with a diverse range of study programs, is currently looking for two data protection officers who have passed the second state examination in law.

Information Security and Data Protection Management

The data protection officers are wanted because the German university would like to better protect the research results of the various institutes and chairs in the future. The officers will advise the researchers at the University of Hamburg on this.

In addition, the university would like to pursue a holistic concept for information security and data protection management, in which various experts will be involved - including the Legal Department, to which the two data protection officers are assigned.
