Judicial Appointments Board for Scotland
4 months ago
Overview:
**Judicial Appointments Board for Scotland**
**Appointment of Lay and Legal Members**
The Judicial Appointments Board for Scotland (JABS) is an independent advisory body that plays a key role in ensuring an open and transparent selection process based on merit for a range of judicial appointments.
The Board’s aims are:
- To attract applicants of the highest calibre, recognising the need to encourage diversity in the range of those available for selection, and
- To recommend applicants for appointment to judicial office on merit through processes that are fair, transparent and command respect.
Skills/Experience Required:
**Roles**
**All Board Members undertake the following tasks**:
- Attend Board meetings, which will generally take place on the third Monday of every second month. Meetings can last for a half-day or a full day and normally start
at 9:15 am;
- Participate in appointment exercises throughout the year in line with the Board’s programme of activity which is demand led;
- With Board colleagues make recommendations to the Scottish Ministers for judicial appointment;
- Contribute to Board committees, working groups or improvement projects;
- Attend training including for assessment and interview; and,
- Occasionally participate in outreach events and stakeholder engagement about the work of the Board.
**Lay members**
For this appointment round, we are looking to recruit up to five lay members.
JABS legislation requires that a lay member:
- Is resident in Scotland;
- Is not a solicitor or advocate practicing as such in Scotland; and
- Does not hold and has not held any judicial office within the Board’s remit.
The role of a lay member is to participate in decision-making on the suitability of individual applicants for judicial appointment and contribute to the development of the Board’s policies, strategy and governance. You will receive training on the Board’s processes and its approach to appointment exercises.
***
**Legal members**
For this appointment round, we are looking to appoint two legal members.
One legal member must be an Advocate and the other may be either a Solicitor (including Solicitor Advocate) or an Advocate, practising as such in Scotland.
**Remuneration and Expenses**: Members of the Board receive £296 per day. Expenses incurred as a result of carrying out the duties of the appointment, including reasonable travel and subsistence costs and dependant carer and childcare expenses, will be reimbursed. The appointment is non-pensionable.
Board Members are expected to attend around 7 Board meetings each year. They will also be involved in competition decision meetings, where these are held separately to Board meetings, Board committees, working groups and will be expected to contribute to Board improvement projects. In addition, Board Members may occasionally be invited to attend engagements with key stakeholders.
Generally, Board meetings are held in person, although provision is available for remote attendance. Other meetings are usually done remotely. Interviews are held in-person, usually in Edinburgh.
