Become a Judge !

The Judicial Careers Portal provides all judges and legal practitioners a platform and comprehensive resources to explore future judicial roles. You can find upcoming vacancies and events along with support material and training that includes judicial shadowing and mentoring and seminars by using the portal.

The role of the Judicial Diversity Committee is to support the Lady Chief Justice in encouraging greater personal and professional diversity within the judiciary. The Committee has decided to develop a portal for judges and members of all legal professions who may be interested in judicial careers.

Judicial Appointments Commission

The Judicial Appointments Commission selects candidates for judicial office in England and Wales, and for some tribunals with UK-wide powers. It is our statutory duty to select people on merit, who are of good character. We believe the judiciary should reflect the society it serves, and we aim to attract diverse applicants from a wide field. We work closely with a range of organisations to promote vacancies to all those who are eligible.
