Job description

eDiscovery and Data Operations Analyst
London | c£45k

I am working with a brilliant London firm searching for someone extraordinary. Not just an eDiscovery and Data Operations Analyst, but a calm, tech-savvy navigator who can turn chaotic data trails into clean, defensible clarity. Someone who can glide between legal teams, platforms, deadlines and digital evidence as if it is all part of a finely tuned constellation. And yes, someone who appreciates a strong Yorkshire Tea (other drinks are available) when things get interesting.

Think of this role as the sweet spot between grounded, practical project delivery and the art of bringing order to scattered information. You will manage the full eDiscovery lifecycle, guide clients and colleagues through complex workflows, and use your technical instincts to make sure every byte ends up exactly where it needs to be.

What you will actually do (beyond cosmic data-taming)

• Manage full eDiscovery projects including scoping, timelines, budgets and reporting while keeping everything aligned.
• Oversee data collection and preservation with the accuracy of someone guarding a digital artefact.
• Run eDiscovery platforms and ensure data is processed, loaded, reviewed and ready for production.
• Design workflows that feel both logical and effortless, even when the deadlines are not.
• Coordinate with forensic teams, translation experts and disclosure providers.
• Perform meticulous quality checks to ensure everything is flawless and defensible.
• Prepare reports and updates that make legal teams breathe easier.
• Train and support internal users so they feel like they have unlocked a new superpower.

Who you are

• You understand eDiscovery deeply. ACEDS, CEDS, PMP, Relativity, DISCO, Reveal or similar are great. If you do not have one, the firm will support you through a Project Management qualification.
• You have run projects from start to finish without losing your cool or your sense of humour.
• You are precise, organised and calm under pressure with the ability to juggle competing demands.
• You understand the tech behind digital evidence, including forensics, review tools, productions and the wider ecosystem.
• You enjoy the blend of logic, structure and detective-style problem solving that comes with eDiscovery work.

If you want a role where you can be the steady hand in a fast-moving environment, part analyst, part architect, part digital truth‑seeker, let us talk.

If this feels like it was written for you, do not wait. Send me a message today and tell me why you are the one I need to speak with. I will have the Yorkshire Tea ready for our chat.
