The Judicial Office (JO) reports and is accountable to the Lady Chief Justice (LCJ) and was established in 2006 to provide support to the LCJ and to the wider judiciary following the Constitutional Reform Act 2005. In addition, we support, and are accountable to, the Senior President of Tribunals, whose responsibilities extend to Scotland and Northern Ireland. The JO is an interesting and unique place to work. Everything we do is in support of upholding the independence and impartiality of the judiciary. We work closely with HMCTS, the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) and others across Government as well as with the legal professions. We are an Arm's Length Body sponsored by the MoJ. This creates an interesting and complex environment in which to work where we agree our priorities with the senior judiciary and receive our funding to deliver them from the MoJ. The JO has been through a period of significant growth resulting from an expansion of our remit and responsibilities. Judicial Security Office This is an exciting time to join the JO, and help to establish a new, dedicated, intelligence-led Judicial Security Office, which will be responsible for leading on out-of-court/hearing centre judicial security. With the risk/threat landscape evolving, you will lead a team that will work alongside Judicial HR, HMCTS, and a wide network of national security, law enforcement and Government partners to identify, assess and respond to a broad range of security threats, helping to protect those at the heart of the justice system. Delivered through three specialist teams, the Judicial Security Office will support around 24,000 judicial office holders, including judges, magistrates and tribunal members across England and Wales. This is a great opportunity to join a new and growing function, with a high-profile mission: safeguarding judicial independent by ensuring judicial office holders receive the security support they need, when they need it, in an increasingly complex threat environment., This role offers the opportunity to make a direct contribution to judicial independence and the effective administration of justice by helping ensure that judicial office holders can carry out their duties safely and confidently.
