How Ex-Forces Employees Can Prepare Your Business for GDPR

Is your business planning to recruit extra employees to cope with the introduction of the EU General Data Protection Regulation next year?

If so, you're not alone! Research has revealed two-thirds of CIOs are taking steps to do the same. 

According to a recent article in Business Matters,  a further 64 per cent of CIOs plan to hire temporary or interim staff to ensure they have the highly-skilled talent in place to manage the change in data management and reporting.

Think 'Outside the Box!'

As legislative change draws closer and the demand for staff with the necessary technical and project management skills increases, your business would do well to consider the valuable experience of highly talented ex-military candidates.

MoD training provides service men and women with the transferable skills necessary to ensure compliance, such as a finely tuned eye for detail and the ability to problem solve.

This offers the perfect solution for businesses who recognise a combination of soft and technical skills is key for the long-term implementation of GDPR.

While GDPR certified practitioners are in short supply, there is no doubt ex-military personnel have the necessary skills to support your business throughout the GDPR process.
