The Information Governance (IG) Coordinator supports a law firm’s Information Governance and compliance efforts as part of its strategic plan. Key responsibilities include assisting with onboarding and offboarding attorneys and staff, handling client file transfers (both physical and electronic), and overseeing document destruction in line with retention policies. The role also involves managing information barriers, legal holds, and conducting regular audits of physical records, as well as entering data into the iManage Records Manager system. Collaboration across departments, particularly with IT and co-General Counsel, is essential to ensure information is classified and secured correctly.

The ideal candidate is self-motivated, highly organized, and able to communicate effectively across all levels. They should demonstrate strong project management skills, attention to detail, and a solid understanding of information governance regulations (e.g., GDPR, CCPA). A minimum of two years in records management or a related field is required, along with familiarity with records procedures, document management software (iManage), and proficiency in Microsoft Office. Flexibility to address issues outside of core business hours is also necessary, as is a positive, solution-focused approach to teamwork.
