Below is our programme of selection exercises for 2012-2013. Please be aware that the scheduled advertisement dates for these selection exercises are provisional and subject to change*. Please check back regularly to see if the selection exercise you are interested in remains in the programme or if the launch date or number of vacancies has changed.
Please also be aware that application forms will not be made available for these exercises until the launch date.
There are very few selection exercises beyond the end of the financial year as HMCTS are continuing to assess their requirements so we are unable to confirm any anticipated exercises at this stage. It is hoped this will be confirmed by the end of this month, we recommend you check this website regularly.
The Longer Term Programme provides a longer-term view which supplements this programme of selection exercises. It details the cycle of major exercises and is intended to enable you to plan your judicial career more effectively. Click here to view.
*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. Some changes to requirements in-year are inevitable as forecasting can not be an exact science.
