**Job summary**:
The National Archives’ is looking for three publishing editors to join its Find Case Law service team at Kew.

The National Archives is responsible for providing public access to Court Judgments and Tribunal Decisions, receiving them for long-term preservation in our digital archive and publishing them on our Find Case Law service. You will join the Find Case Law service team as a publishing editor, becoming part of a small team responsible for the day-to-day publishing of court judgments and tribunal decisions.

About the role:
Court records are vital public records. Since the founding of the Public Record Office in 1838, court records have been a large and central part of The National Archives’ collection. From a record keeping perspective, judgments are the most important records of the courts. The judgment records the facts of the case, the decision of the court and the reasons for the decision. Judgments are also an important source of law. In legally significant cases that develop the law, judgments are as important as legislation.

As a Publishing Editor, you will assist the wider Publishing team with the timely publication of judgments and decisions, working closely with the senior editors in dealing with any issues that may arise. You will collaborate with the wider publishing and development team to ensure that effective and efficient systems are in place for managing the publishing of new judgments and tribunal decisions. You will also help manage and correct issues in the legacy data The National Archives has received for preservation and publication.

About you:
You will enjoy working as part of a team, supporting and learning from your colleagues as well as working independently to review and publish judgments quickly and accurately. You will be responsive and flexible in your approach to meeting the priorities and demands of the courts.

You will have outstanding attention to detail and a good appreciation for the proper administration of justice.

- Full job description attached (see below).**Person specification**:
This is a full-time post. However, requests for part-time working, flexible working and job share will be considered.

The Find Case Law team is based within the Digital Archiving Department at TNA, it is a supportive, welcoming department made up of several multidisciplinary agile teams, focused on delivering services that make it possible for everyone to uncover the evidence held within our important records.

Our place of work is in the beautiful surroundings of Kew, a 10-minute walk from Underground and Overground stations. A combination of onsite and home working is available, and applicants should be able to regularly travel to our Kew site for a minimum of 60% of their work time.
