Assist in both a legal and administrative way in the efficient and effective running of the chambers of Senior Judicial Registrars and/or Judicial Registrars, including through preparing correspondence and reports and managing the schedule of hearings and engagements in the Court databases, and assistance with registrar case management more broadly.
Use Court applications and associated documentation to accurately enter and maintain information on Court databases, enter and disseminate listing information, and manage Court records and files.
Assist registrars in the planning and case management of matters including in the preparation and publication of orders, liaising with Judges' chambers, litigants, and other services.
Develop and maintain relationships with Court users and be responsive to requests from external and internal stakeholders.
Assist with the referral of matters to judges, Senior Judicial Registrars, Judicial Registrars, Child Dispute Services staff, and other registry staff.
Provide support to Senior Judicial Registrars and/or Judicial Registrars working on key initiatives, including the Lighthouse Project and on PPP-500 small claims property matters, including relating processes, case management, and operation of the specialist list to Court users and internal staff.
Formal Qualifications and Experience
Completion of a law degree or Juris Doctor, or in the latter stages of studies for a law degree or Juris Doctor.
Experience within a court or legal environment is highly regarded.
Selection Criteria
The successful applicants will need to have:
Strong legal and legal research skills.
