Job description

eDiscovery Senior Project Manager - £70,000 to £80,000 - London

I’m excited to be exclusively partnered with a globally renowned firm that’s investing heavily in its in‑house eDiscovery capabilities. With the successful rollout of RelOne and a rising volume of complex, high‑stakes matters, they are now expanding their tight‑knit, established team of litigation support experts.

They are hiring a Senior based out of their London office to join a team that sits right at the intersection of legal and technology. This is not your typical in‑house position. It’s a technical, hands‑on role where you’ll be leading eDiscovery projects from start to finish and shaping how legal teams use cutting‑edge tools to deliver results.

Responsibilities

• You’ll manage entire eDiscovery workflows – from data intake, processing, and culling, through to reviews, QC, and production.
• Act as a trusted advisor to legal teams, consulting on strategy, search logic, workflows, and training.
• Work closely with vendors and internal IT, and help steer best practices across the firm.
• Use your expertise to help create bespoke workflows, optimise the use of Relativity, and even explore new tech.

Requirements

• 4+ years of hands‑on eDiscovery experience (law firm or service provider).
• Deep Relativity knowledge (RelOne experience ideal).
• Confidence managing projects end‑to‑end, independently.
• Strong communication skills – you'll be working closely with lawyers, vendors, and IT.

Benefits

£70,000 – £80,000 per year plus a bonus.

• Private medical and dental insurance.
• Be part of a small team backed by a firm with global scale and resources, who are now growing the function & team.
• Huge room for career progression – this is a team set to grow, and they want leaders who grow with it.

This is a brilliant opportunity to be part of something scalable, forward‑thinking, and genuinely impactful within the legal tech space. Whether you’re coming from a service provider and ready to move in‑house, or already in‑house and looking for a more strategic, high‑ownership role, this could be the perfect next step.
