Our history
The DPO Centre was founded in 2017 by Rob Masson, a serial entrepreneur and thought leader who has been involved in delivering solutions and services to some of the world’s largest and most respected companies.
The purpose of the DPO Centre is to help organisations identify how evolving data protection legislation will affect them, the steps they need to take to comply, and how, when implemented well, compliance builds trust, confidence, loyalty and engagement.
Since then, the DPO Centre has grown exponentially, working with an ever-growing client base and employing one of the largest and most experienced teams of privacy professionals available. In August 2020, the DPO Centre appointed a non-executive board of directors who, between them, have over 100 years’ experience in leading fast-growth businesses and entrepreneurship.
Our #ONETEAM philosophy is a fundamental element of our success, it sets us apart from our competitors, and enables us to consistently build on our core values of Respect, Adapt and Deliver.
On 1 September 2025, The DPO Centre was acquired by Axiom GRC, enhancing our ability to deliver expert data protection services across markets. Axiom GRC is a global governance, risk and compliance platform, serving over 40,000 clients and 2 million users globally.
