We provide our clients with a comprehensive view of cybersecurity and privacy consulting that leverages our integrated suite of services, including privacy program development, regulatory compliance, data protection assessments, incident response, and cyber risk management across all major markets around the world.

We are currently looking for a driven Senior Consultant to join our Privacy team within the Cybersecurity practice. This person will support and lead client engagements across a broad range of privacy consulting services, including privacy program development, regulatory compliance, data governance, privacy risk assessments, policy development, and the implementation of privacy management technologies. Given the diverse and evolving nature of privacy work, we are looking for a well-rounded privacy professional who brings both subject matter depth and client-facing experience, with the ability to manage workstreams, contribute to proposals, and help grow the practice.

  • Lead and support the delivery of privacy engagements across service areas including privacy program assessments, gap analyses, data inventory and mapping, data subject rights programs, third-party risk management, and privacy policy development;
  • Assist in the configuration and implementation of privacy management platforms (e.g., OneTrust, TrustArc, Ketch, Osano, Truyo) to support client-facing privacy program solutions, including Consent Management Platforms (CMP), Data Subject Access Request (DSAR) workflows, and vendor risk management portals;
  • Prepare and review a variety of client deliverables including strategic memos, privacy assessments, presentations, policy and procedure documents, gap analysis reports, and regulatory compliance updates;
  • Monitor and interpret developments across federal and state privacy law and applicable international frameworks, including GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA, and emerging regulations, and advise clients accordingly;
  • Manage workstreams and junior team members on engagements, ensuring quality, timeliness, and alignment with client objectives;
  • Contribute to business development activities including proposal development, client presentations, and thought leadership;
  • Deliver high-quality work focused on client needs and demonstrate a high level of integrity in managing firm and client data responsibly.


How You'll Grow

This is an excellent opportunity for a privacy professional to deepen their expertise and expand their impact within a dynamic, growing practice. You will work alongside experienced practitioners on complex, high-profile engagements for top-tier law firms, financial institutions, and global corporations. FTI is committed to your professional development and will work with you to build a clear career path within the Cybersecurity practice, supported by coaching, mentoring, and continuous learning opportunities that keep pace with the rapidly evolving privacy landscape.
