Solicitors and barristers have been invited to apply for 11 salaried judge positions at the new Upper Tribunal
Solicitors and barristers have been invited to apply for 11 salaried judge positions at the new Upper Tribunal (Immigration and Asylum Chamber) (UTIAC).
Launched in February, UTIAC hears appeals from the new First-tier Tribunal of the Immigration and Asylum Chamber. It was set up as a specialist structure to cope with a heavy workload of immigration and asylum cases and reduce the number of these cases being heard by the Court of Appeal.
Applicants should apply to the Judicial Appointments Commission. Eight of the positions are for immediate appointment and three are for possible future vacancies. It is possible that two part-time working positions may be made available for the immediate posts and for the future posts.
Applications must be in by midday, 17 November.
