As an eDiscovery Senior in our Forensic Technology & Discovery Services team, you will work on a variety of client engagements with colleagues across the team collecting, processing, analysing, and producing large volumes of data from multiple sources. Alongside colleagues, you will use industry standard forensic tools along with innovative internally developed software and analytics packages.

Overview of our practice:

Within our global Forensics practice, we have a Forensic Technology & Discovery Services team (FTDS) that is a data-focused unit helping support our clients when dealing with the complex issues of fraud, regulatory compliance, and business disputes. Our FTDS team has a speciality eDiscovery team that operates across the full data investigation lifecycle (identification, preservation, collection, processing, analysis, review, production, reporting, and data disposition).

Our engagements typically require working with international teams on large, and often disparate, volumes of electronically stored structured and unstructured data, and the application of advanced analytics techniques. We work with clients across a range of sectors, and specialising in financial services (retail banking, corporate banking, investment banking and insurance), supporting investigations, disputes, and proactive risk detection. We often work in multi-party teams collaborating with our clients, their legal counsel, and other specialists, using our expertise, experience, and advanced technology to deliver data insights in time-pressured situations.

We lead on traditional eDiscovery use cases, and our team also works on adjacent use cases, such as digital forensics, cyber incident response, information governance, and data privacy matters amongst other related matters.

Your key responsibilities:

Take a central role in the provision of end-to-end support and services on eDiscovery engagements, performing tasks across the whole project lifecycle including identification, preservation, analysis, and productions.

Use a range of industry standard software and services to support client requirements. such as EnCase, FTK, Nuix, Relativity, Reveal, Cellebrite, Magnet Axiom, Magnet Verakey and SQL.

Provide direct engagement support to clients, including but not limited to user access, workstream setup, analytics, and custom object creation within various platforms.

Work closely with project management to ensure critical deadlines are met and engagement quality is at a high standard.

Use problem-solving approaches to overcome unexpected issues, both technical and operational.

Seek new ways to use existing and emerging technologies to solve client problems, e.g., our teams advise, build, and use artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to assist our clients, and we are now using generative AI (GenAI) as well to reshape the data investigation process.
