The Magistrates Association is a national charity with a mission to provide a voice for magistrates, support our members in administering the law and educate people on the role of magistracy in England and Wales. Our policy work engages key stakeholders from across the justice system and charitable sector, covering a wide range of issues such as the provision of legal advice, the digitisation of courts, BAME disproportionality in the criminal justice system and diversity within the judiciary.

We are looking for a reliable, organised and self-motivated intern to support the work of our small, enthusiastic Policy and Research team. The work is likely to include providing summaries of key reports, collating research findings, monitoring parliamentary developments and feeding into policy development.

The ideal candidate will be able to commit to office hours for a minimum of three days per working week for a period of at least two months, but flexible working arrangements can be discussed.
