The Judicial Appointments Commission, which selects candidates for judicial office in England and Wales, and for some tribunals with UK-wide powers, is running a judicial selection exercise.
It has four vacancies available for economists, accountants or other senior-level financial business specialists as fee-paid non-legal tribunal members in the Upper Tribunal Tax and Chancery Chamber. Tribunals make judicial decisions in trade remedy disputes. This is a part-time role with a public service remit that contributes to financial and regulatory legal decisions. Successful candidates will be entitled to a fee for each day they sit in addition to the satisfaction of sitting on a panel, likely to include a High Court judge, that makes ground-breaking decisions involving a new area of law in the UK. It can be combined with a candidate’s current profession.
The closing date is Tuesday 24th January. More details can be found here.
