• $74,580 per annum + superannuation as per the superannuation guarantee (VPS Grade 3.1)

We are seeking to appoint an Associate to support her Honour Judge Clayton at the County Court of Victoria in the Common Law Division.

The County Court of Victoria has original and appellate jurisdiction and is the principal trial court in Victoria. The Court hears over 12,000 criminal, common law and commercial matters each year. The Court's vision is to be a leader in court excellence, delivering the highest standard of justice to the community and inspiring public confidence in the rule of law.

Her Honour Judge Clayton principally sits in the Common Law Division and is currently the Judge in Charge of the Defamation List.

As her Honour's associate, you will provide high-level operational, administrative and technical legal support to Judge Clayton both in chambers and in court, and work closely with another associate.

Ideally you will have demonstrated legal ability, a strong interest in Common Law and defamation law, a high level of attention to detail, excellent organisational, interpersonal, written and oral communication skills, the ability to exercise sound judgment and balance competing demands on your time and work well under pressure.

The County Court regularly conducts circuit sittings in multiple regional locations throughout Victoria. Judge Clayton and her staff usually undertake two such circuits of several weeks' duration each year.

The successful applicant will have completed their law degree. Experience in legal practice will be viewed favourably. Recent law graduates, legal practitioners and candidates interested in a future at the Bar, are encouraged to apply.

Your application must include:

  • a cover letter outlining your interests and suitability for the role
