To celebrate International Women’s Day 2024, Rob Masson, CEO of The DPO Centre Ltd, provided an Executive Statement to the IWD website. The statement highlights The DPO Centre’s commitment to #InspireInclusion and promote opportunities for women in every part of the business.
As a leader in outsourced data protection services, The DPO Centre works with organisations across the span of industry sectors, including technology, finance, and life sciences. We’ve grown to include offices in Dublin, the Netherlands, Canada, and representative offices across the European Member States.
We believe our people are our greatest asset, and our mission is to ‘inspire and develop one remarkable team that delivers the extraordinary.’
We have a dynamic, supportive, and inclusive culture. A #ONETEAM philosophy, where ideas are shared, learning is ongoing and personal growth is championed. We’re passionate about the benefits of data protection and continually strive to set new standards to support our clients and remain at the forefront of evolving privacy legislation.
Our team members come from all kinds of backgrounds and we actively #InspireInclusion by celebrating our differences with various initiatives such as awareness days and fundraising charity events.
Across The DPO Centre group, we are proud to have a 57% female ratio within our leadership teams, well above industry averages. We have a fantastic mentorship programme to support new joiners and we strive to promote opportunities for women in every part of the business.
In January 2024 our COO, Lenitha Bishop, was named Entrepreneurial Businesswoman of the Year at the Great British Businesswoman Awards. And in July 2023 we were accredited as a Great Place to Work-Certified™ organisation.
Going forward, we will continue to build an inspiring workplace, where every individual can thrive and contribute to our collective success.
