Systems Analyst, Global Privacy

Work Mode: Hybrid

Location: Hybrid at Kohler, WI

Opportunity

Does ensuring that people’s personal data is protected according to privacy regulations sound like an interesting challenge? The Kohler Cybersecurity team is looking for a Global Privacy Analyst to design secure, and private, solutions that meet our compliance requirements. Our global privacy team seeks to work closely with our business partners to identify privacy risks, implement mitigating controls, and enable business solutions.

Our Privacy Center of Excellence (COE) team is extremely tight knit, and you would be on that team. Our team is comprised of cybersecurity and legal resources, as well as many privacy champions within Kohler. We work together to define privacy requirements, educate the business on risks and necessary mitigations. We address regulatory requirements such as privacy impact assessments (PIAs), data protection impact assessments (DPIAs) and respond to consumer requests. We’re looking for a new teammate who is curious, motivated, and reliable; someone who will help us continue to foster the positive team culture we have cultivated.

This position will identify and analyze privacy risks across the ecosystem. You will develop strategies and plans to define and enforce privacy requirements.

Not all risks are created equal. You will use a tactical approach to increase visibility of privacy concerns to reduce those risks across the ecosystem. This includes facilitating conversations with business partners to understand data privacy risk and how we can find an acceptable solution.

We leverage the NIST Privacy Framework and have built strong foundational controls; we want to scale those controls and make the process more efficient. We can’t do it alone; the Privacy Analyst works cross-functionally with the business, IT, and enterprise functions to identify opportunities for risk reduction and process improvement(s). You would serve as a trusted advisor to partners in IT and the business. Strong communications skills are key, with the ability to communicate complex issues in clear non-technical language. You should be able to influence key business partners, including executive leadership, and drive consensus in complex stakeholder environments with multiple conflicting priorities. Join the Kohler cybersecurity team and become an influential voice on our privacy journey!
