Job adverts have been posted for three justices and a president as the process of recruiting for the UK’s most senior court gets underway.
Replacements are sought for Lady Hale, president of the Supreme Court, Lord Carnwath and Lord Wilson, due to retire next year in January, March and May, respectively.
Prospective candidates have until midday on 1 March to apply. The names of those appointed will be announced in October and the successors will take up office as vacancies arise.
Applications are welcomed from all eligible to apply, including those who are not currently full-time judges, and particularly those who will increase the diversity of the Court. Currently, only two of the 11 justices are female—Lady Hale and Lady Black—and none are minority ethnic.
Familiarisation visits are available to the candidates. More information on eligibility and the selection process can be found on the Supreme Court website.
