Job Description

JUSTICE is on the hunt for two new lawyers to join our team. This provides an exciting opportunity for practising lawyers with a strong research background or academic lawyers keen to engage in high-level policy and law reform work.  We are looking for lawyers interested in administrative and civil justice, as well as in cross-cutting issues affecting the functioning of the justice system (our recent cross-cutting projects have included work on judicial diversity, the way courts are configured and combatting digital exclusion as courts go online).

The successful candidates will be appointed to a full-time post on a permanent basis, based at our London office. Our staff enjoy flexible working conditions, 27 days annual leave, plus the week between Christmas and the New Year, 8% employer pension contribution and access to an Employee Assistance Programme.

We would like to recruit bright, motivated people who are passionate about system change in the promotion of access to justice and in the fair administration of justice. The successful candidates must be able to work independently and as part of a team. With excellent interpersonal skills, they will be able to work closely with JUSTICE members, who include senior figures in the legal profession. The post holders will work with our Legal Director to develop our civil and administrative justice work streams and assist on system-wide proposals for change.

To apply, please send the completed application form and send with a covering letter. CVs will not be considered.

The deadline for applications is 5pm on Thursday 12th April. Interviews will be held on Monday 23rd April. Candidates will be required to complete a test as part of the interview process.

JUSTICE is an equal opportunities employer.
