About this role
Staff Privacy Management at The Hershey Company
The Staff Privacy Management role is a leader that will shape and drive the strategy, platforms, and integrations that enable consumer privacy, compliance, marketing consent, compliant data activation, and enterprise trust across our commercial digital ecosystem. This is a senior individual contributor role for a technologist who can move fluidly between shaping multi-year strategy with the Chief Privacy Officer's organization and hands-on delivery of platform capabilities that keep Hershey compliant, competitive, and consumer-centric.
As Hershey scales its ONE Hershey commercial engine and expands first-party data, personalization, AI, and agentic capabilities, privacy technology moves from a compliance function to a strategic enabler of marketing effectiveness and consumer trust. This role owns the vision, architecture, and operating model for how that capability is delivered.
