The Opportunity
This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced and enthusiastic eDiscovery Analyst / Senior Analyst to join Ashurst Advance, our NewLaw division combining market-leading technology, refined processes and subject matter expertise to deliver technology-enabled legal and eDiscovery services. Working alongside Ashurst's legal experts, Ashurst Advance helps solve clients' business challenges through efficient, cost-effective and digitally innovative legal service delivery.
You will work as part of a team providing cutting-edge eDiscovery services to our clients and internal practice groups, with exposure to litigation, regulatory responses, investigations, and transactional work.
We are interested in hearing from people who have:
1. Demonstrated exposure to, or a genuine interest in developing, eDiscovery skills; prior experience advising using the front-end of RelativityOne is advantageous but not essential.
2. Ability to troubleshoot - or the enthusiasm to learn how to troubleshoot - technical and non-technical issues that arise during a project and to assist in implementing straightforward, repeatable solutions.
3. Sound understanding of, or strong motivation to rapidly acquire knowledge of, the legal framework of eDiscovery, including exchange protocols and best practices across the full EDRM model.
4. Familiarity with, or readiness to be trained in, advanced eDiscovery technologies such as Active Learning, concept clustering, and search-term analysis.
5. Capacity to oversee and support multiple eDiscovery matters - or the willingness to build this capability - while effectively managing priorities and identifying efficient workflows.
6. Proven ability, or demonstrated potential, to work collaboratively in a fast-paced, solutions-focused environment with strict deadlines.
7. Excellent communication skills with an emphasis on conveying technical concepts to non-technical audiences clearly and concisely.
8. Acute attention to detail and a dedication to incorporating quality-assurance practices into all facets of work, or a clear intention to develop these attributes.
