Apply for the Judicial Assistant Scheme

Lawyers with judicial aspirations should keep an eye out for the 2021/22 High Court Judicial Assistant Scheme.

 Applications will go live next week, with the job advert and application form advertised on judiciary.uk. The role offers those in the early stages of their career a unique view of the trial process.

Candidates are assigned to judges of the High Court across the three divisions. They assist the judges by carrying out research, summarising documents and providing general support in the organisation of their work and hearings.
