Job description
We are pleased to be able to announce we now have an agreed selection exercise programme for 2010-11. We appreciate your continued help and support in alerting your members and other interested parties to the judicial opportunities available. The full programme can be found on our website at http://www.judicialappointments.gov.uk/selection-process/selection-exercises/forthcoming.htm , along with our popular vacancy alert system, which emails subscribers with important updates and details of when a particular selection exercise launches.
As you know the selection exercise programme is agreed with the Ministry of Justice every year and comprises the essential selection exercises needed to fill judicial vacancies forecast by Her Majesty’s Court Service, Tribunals Service and other tribunals. We work closely with MoJ, HMCS and the TS to respond to their emerging requirements during the year, recognising that some changes during the year are inevitable as forecasting can not be an exact science. There were several significant changes in-year this year and I expect next year will be the same so please do remember to check our website regularly for updates.
The programme for the remainder of 2009-10 is also on our website. The full list of forthcoming exercises is as follows:
