PwC. Upon leaving Exeter (where I completed my Graduate LLB), I worked at a litigation fund, various international laws firms, and now a consultancy firm (PwC).  Working at a litigation fund, which was my first role upon graduation,  provided me with insight into the financial and strategic aspects aspects of litigation. Litigation funds are data driven businesses because they rely on data to make informed decisions about which claims to finance and how much to invest.
