Introducing Helen Dixon as Global Digital Regulatory Consultant
Helen Dixon has joined the firm as a Global Digital Regulatory Consultant within our internationally renowned Data & Technology team. Helen will further enhance the firm’s capabilities in data and technology regulation, and platform governance.
A former Commissioner of both the Data Protection Commission and Commission for Communications Regulation, Helen brings unrivalled regulatory insight into the evolving oversight of digital platforms and technology and data governance. Her appointment comes at a pivotal moment as technology and AI regulation evolves and regulatory enforcement increases.
In her new role, Helen will support clients in an increasingly complex regulatory environment shaped by emerging EU and global rules regulating data, technology, AI and content.
Philip Nolan, Chairperson and Head of Data & Technology, commented:
“We are delighted to welcome Helen to the firm at a time when digital regulation is rapidly expanding and evolving along with increased enforcement. Organisations face growing expectations to manage risk and user safety while ensuring correct governance mechanisms are in place. Helen’s unique experience at the highest levels of regulatory oversight strengthens our ability to help clients build compliance while they continue to deliver cutting edge technology services to their users.”
Helen Dixon said:
“I am pleased to join the team at Mason Hayes & Curran at a time when data and technology regulation along with digital platform governance are rapidly evolving. Regulators are placing greater emphasis on accountability, transparency, and risk mitigation in online environments. I look forward to helping Mason Hayes & Curran’s clients develop practical strategies that enable them to operate confidently while meeting regulatory and societal expectations.”
Alongside her work in the firm, Helen will continue to contribute to wider policy and advisory initiatives, ensuring close alignment with ongoing regulatory and legislative developments. Helen will not consult on any matters in which she had decision-making involvement during her previous tenure at the Data Protection Commission and the Commission for Communications Regulation.
Her appointment represents a further strengthening of our leadership in digital regulation, ensuring the firm can guide clients through the next phase of technology regulation and enforcement.
