Make a difference at the heart of justice
Good administrative staff with excellent customer service skills are vital to the effective operation of our courts, tribunals, and offices. At HMCTS, we are committed to delivering high standards of public service by embracing Lean principles and continuous improvement techniques.
As an Administrative Officer, you'll play a key role in ensuring cases progress smoothly through the justice system while providing outstanding support to colleagues and court users.
The role
This is a varied and rewarding position where no two days are the same. You'll join a supportive team and carry out a wide range of administrative tasks to keep our courts and tribunals running efficiently. From preparing case files to assisting court users face-to-face, you'll have opportunities to exercise initiative and contribute to continuous improvement within a structured environment.
While you'll be based in one office, occasional flexibility to work at other local HMCTS offices may be required.
What you'll do
You will:
✅ Prepare papers and files for courts, tribunals, hearings, and meetings
✅ Draft standard letters, reports, minutes, and other documents
✅ Update records and input data using in-house systems
✅ Manage post, photocopying, filing, and general office tasks
✅ Assist with scheduling, listing, and rota management
✅ Handle face-to-face, telephone, and written enquiries from court users, legal professionals, and the public
✅ Support court operations by clerking hearings, serving court documents, or executing warrants where needed
✅ Work as part of a flexible team to problem solve and drive improvements
✅ Contribute to small projects and take on ad hoc responsibilities (e.g. Jury Bailiff Officer, Learning & Development Co-ordinator)
You'll also have the chance to work on workload targets, verify documents for accuracy, and assist in managing daily team meetings to maintain operational efficiency.
What we're looking for
We're seeking motivated individuals with:
✔️ 5 GCSEs (A*-C) or equivalent qualifications, or NVQ Level 2 in Business Administration, or relevant administrative experience
✔️ Strong IT skills and the ability to quickly learn in-house systems
✔️ Excellent communication and customer service skills
✔️ The ability to work independently and as part of a team
✔️ A flexible and proactive approach to work
Experience in an administrative or customer service role is desirable but not essential - full training will be provided.
Why join us?
This is more than just a job - it's a chance to be part of the Operational Delivery Profession, the outward face of government providing essential public services.
