The Judicial Conduct Investigations Office (JCIO) is part of the Judicial Office, an arms-length body of the Ministry of Justice. We support the Lord Chancellor and Lord Chief Justice in their joint responsibility for judicial discipline. We deal with complaints about the personal conduct of judges and coroners. This is interesting and important work, which contributes to public confidence in the judiciary. We are a hardworking, committed, and supportive team of 15 people based at the Royal Courts of Justice in London.

This is an exciting time to join the JCIO. Following an independent review and a public consultation which ended in August, the disciplinary system will undergo important changes in the coming months and years. The remit of the JCIO will be expanding and the team will increase in size.
