Join the Family Justice Council

The Family Justice Council is looking for two new members―a justices’ clerk or assistant justices’ clerk and a paediatrician

The Council advises on reforms to the family justice system and its members are drawn from across the spectrum of professionals, judges, lawyers, doctors, social workers, academics and civil servants.

Applicants for the two vacancies should have substantial experience in their field. The Council meets four times a year and conducts much of its work through working groups. The appointment is unpaid and will last three years. Reasonable travelling and other expenses will be paid. The deadline is 24 June 2020, with interviews scheduled for the week commencing 20 July.
