Litigation Practice Support Project Manager

Why This Role Is Different

• In eDiscovery, burnout is practically a job requirement, but not here. This firm has built something genuinely rare: a litigation support team where professionals are trusted, valued, and protected from the grind that defines most of the industry.
• Standard 40‑hour work week.
• Healthcare benefits covered in full by the employer, with no premium out of your pocket.
• After the first year, eligible for profit sharing, which has translated into meaningful bonuses for the team year after year.

About the Role

• Recruiting on behalf of a well‑regarded law firm for a Litigation Practice Support Project Manager to serve as the team lead for eDiscovery matters across the full EDRM cycle.
• Partner closely with case teams and clients to develop strategies for collection, processing, review, and production.
• Leverage both in‑house tools and trusted third‑party vendors to deliver efficient, cost‑effective solutions.
• Hybrid position (1 day per week on‑site).
• Requires critical thinking, the ability to work autonomously, and composure in fast‑moving environments.

What You'll Be Doing

• Primary contact for discovery matters across multiple simultaneous cases.
• Develop methodologies and cost estimates for working with client data.
• Support all phases of the eDiscovery lifecycle from scoping through production.
• Ensure productions conform to ESI Discovery Orders with proper vetting, redactions, and encryption.
• Build and maintain relationships with third‑party service providers.
• Monitor matters proactively and communicate regular status updates to case teams.
• Document and continuously improve defensible workflows across preservation, collections, and productions.
• Train attorneys and staff on litigation technologies as needed.
• Stay current on eDiscovery case law, AI trends, and emerging data sources.

What We're Looking For

• 3+ years of eDiscovery or litigation support experience managing projects independently.
• Relativity Server administration required; RelativityOne a plus.
• Knowledge of collection methodologies including forensics, ESI, and document review.
• Familiarity with litigation‑centric applications, including case management and transcript tools.
• Trial support experience and eDiscovery/PM certifications preferred.
• Clear communicator who can translate technical concepts for non‑technical audiences.
• Highly organized with the ability to prioritize and deliver under tight deadlines.
• Team player who takes ownership and builds trust at all levels of the firm.
