About the Role

123Dentist is recruiting a Senior Privacy & Compliance Manager to join its high-performing and dynamic Legal Department, based at our Head Office in Toronto or in Montreal. Reporting directly to the Vice President, Privacy & Compliance, the successful candidate will run the day-to-day operation of the organization’s privacy and compliance program across our rapidly expanding, countrywide network of dental practices.

You will translate strategy into practical, repeatable processes and partner with teams across the business – including Operations, Human Resources, Information Technology, Finance, Marketing, and Mergers & Acquisitions – to keep the network compliant and foster a culture of integrity. The mandate spans privacy and data protection, corporate and clinical regulatory compliance, enterprise risk and governance, ESG, and the regulatory maintenance of affiliated dental professional corporations.

Run the privacy program day to day – maintaining policies, consent and retention standards, and privacy impact assessments, and supporting the designated privacy officer function across every province of operation

Coordinate privacy incident and data breach response end to end, from triage through notification and remediation

Advise Operations, Human Resources, Information Technology, Finance, Marketing, and Mergers & Acquisitions on compliance, keeping practices and teams aligned with applicable laws and dental college requirements

Maintain clinical regulatory compliance (IPAC, billing/insurance, and record-keeping) – running internal audits, corrective actions, reference materials, and training for clinical teams

Coordinate the Management Risk Committee and maintain the enterprise risk register and heat maps, tracking mitigation actions with risk owners

Operate the organization’s ESG program – tracking initiatives and metrics and preparing reporting and disclosures

Administer the regulatory maintenance of affiliated dental professional corporations and support sedation and x-ray permit applications and renewals across jurisdictions

Review vendor and third-party agreements for privacy and data-protection compliance, and work with external counsel and the broader Legal team on shared matters





Deliver training and awareness initiatives that build a culture of compliance across the organization

5+ years of progressive experience in corporate compliance, regulatory affairs, or data privacy, gained in a regulated industry such as healthcare, finance, or technology

Working knowledge of Canadian privacy legislation (PHIPA, PIPEDA, and provincial equivalents), with the ability to translate legal and regulatory requirements into practical, operational processes

Ideally, familiarity with dental or healthcare regulatory requirements

Business-oriented mindset with the ability to assess legal and regulatory risk in a commercial context

Excellent drafting, communication, analytical, and organizational skills, together with sound business judgment and a high degree of integrity

Outstanding attention to detail, with a high degree of autonomy and sound judgment in decision‑making

A privacy certification (CIPP/C or CIAPP) or Certified Dental Compliance Professional (CDCP) would be an asset
