The State of the U.S. Privacy Job Market, 2019
If orange is indeed the new black, then privacy might be the new cybersecurity. In just over a year since GDPR Day (May 25, 2018), privacy by design has made privacy as a profession one of the fastest growing and hottest verticals in and outside of the legal job market. Just as cybersecurity jobs are touted as having the highest demand yet lowest supply of talent in the American ecosystem, privacy is quickly becoming a field of increasing potential for talent in tertiary disciplines such as security, e-discovery, information governance, legal or compliance to find reinvention as well as greater vertical and financial mobility.
Few global legal phenomena in recent decades can compare to the sweeping impact the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation has had on big and small businesses alike, both domestic and abroad. GDPR has simultaneously been a job stimulus and an inflection point in how seriously society intends to govern our cultural, geopolitical and social identities as consumers. While U.S. law on data privacy is notably different and currently lacks federal regulation, a company's posture on data privacy has become vital to corporate brand identity — and arguably survival — in a changing global economy. Growth and maintenance of GDPR programs, fragmented updates in domestic privacy regulations, the increasing standardization and acceptance of training and education and an evolving American corporate commitment to consumer transparency around data collection will all alter the landscape of the privacy job market in the coming years. What we call and consider privacy today will enlarge and expand from this early origin, but for the near future, the impact will unquestionably mean more jobs.
