**Judicial Appointments Commission - Senior Policy Advisor**

Do you want to play a key role in selecting judges of the future? Are you passionate about fairness and consistency, with excellent stakeholder engagement skills? If the answer is yes, you could be exactly who we’re looking for to join our dynamic policy team.

**The Role**

Our Senior Policy Advisors play a pivotal role in helping us to achieve that. They work with our Commissioners, selection exercise teams and members of the judiciary to make sure our shortlisting and interview materials are challenging, fair and fulfil our statutory responsibilities. They use their excellent stakeholder engagement skills to advise colleagues across the organisation, and beyond, on how to implement JAC policies correctly, and even help us to develop new ones so that we can ensure that our recruitment campaigns offer a consistent and high-quality experience for all applicants.

**Main Responsibilities**

Reporting to the Head of Selection Policy, while not an exhaustive list, the role of JAC Senior Policy Advisor includes:

- Providing advice, briefing, and guidance for Commissioners, senior staff and operational teams on selection exercise process and policy matters;
- Development, drafting, presentation, and delivery of new policy relating to the JAC selection process and selection tools;
- Ensuring that the JAC’s selection processes are fair and free from bias, working with equality and operational leads and Commissioners to meet the JAC’s statutory duties;
- Maintaining ownership of key delivery materials, templates and guidance relating to selection policy;
- Regularly reviewing and quality assuring the selection exercise process, liaising regularly with selection exercise teams to ensure best practice is understood and followed;
- Secretariat of the JAC Advisory Group, an external group of judges and legal professionals who assist in the quality assurance of our selection tools;
- Managing requests to seek legal advice from the in-house legal team;
- Providing support to the Head of Selection Policy and wider team as required.

**Essential Criteria**
- Ability to engage and communicate confidently with senior staff, Board members, and the ability to build constructive relationships with a variety of internal and external partners and other stakeholders;
- Experience and understanding of working to published procedures, or operational policy, in a public sector environment;
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills and ability to target communications to a range of audiences.
- Strong IT skills, especially MS Word, MS Teams and Excel and the ability to quickly develop the skills to work with new IT solutions.

**Desirable criteria**
- Knowledge and understanding of recruitment and selection processes would be advantageous but is not essential.

**What we can offer you**

We offer a range of benefits including an attractive annual leave allowance, flexible and hybrid working opportunities, and choice of pension schemes. We actively encourage all staff to undertake learning and development as part of their personal objectives.

While the JAC is an independent executive non-departmental public body, we are considered an arms-length body of the Ministry of Justice and share many of the same policies, processes and terms and conditions as Civil Servants employed directly by the MoJ. This includes being part of the MoJ pay remit, enabling transferees from other government departments to retain their continuity of service and Civil Service Pension arrangements.

Though located at Clive House, Petty France, London, SW1H 9AJ JAC staff are currently working in a hybrid way with some days in the office and some days working remotely. It will be necessary for the successful postholder to work at the JAC location regularly to support business need.

**Recruitment Process**

We’ll assess you against these behaviours during the selection process
- Communicating and Influencing
- Making Effective Decisions
- Changing and Improving
- Delivery at Pace

**Application process**
- Your CV
- A statement of suitability explaining why you are interested in the role and the skills and experience you will bring to it (500 words max)
