eDiscovery Project Manager

You'll join the managed services team of a global eDiscovery provider as it grows its presence in Australia, running matters end to end in Nuix and Relativity while acting as the primary contact for a portfolio of clients. This is a hands-on role. You process and host the data, set up and support the review environment, and manage productions yourself, rather than coordinating people who do. Around two thirds of your time is client-facing and a third is in the tools.

The team is expanding and this is a new seat, hiring in Sydney, Brisbane or Melbourne. You'll advise clients on how to approach their data and which technology to apply, then deliver it, working alongside the provider's processing, hosting, forensics and finance teams to get matters through on time.
