    Brief

This role involves providing expert guidance on the development, review, and negotiation of Data Sharing Agreements (DSAs) that comply with the ISD requirements. The successful supplier will help ensure that data sharing arrangements between organizations are properly documented, legally sound, and meet regulatory obligations. Support may include drafting agreement templates, providing legal advice on complex sharing scenarios, ensuring compliance with data protection legislation, and advising on governance frameworks. This is an opportunity for legal firms or specialist consultancies with expertise in data protection, information governance, and public sector data sharing arrangements.
