Ensuring Associates have access to the appropriate resources, training and professional development to meet these needs will be an important focus for the Managers.

Reporting to the Manager, Judicial Services, Associates & Clerks. The Wellington based Associates' Manager (South) will oversee the Senior Courts associates based in Wellington and Christchurch while the Auckland based Associates' Manager (North) will oversee Auckland High Courts associates.

**Mō mātou/**About us**

The Office of the Chief Justice | Te Tari Toko i te Tumu Whakawā (Te Tari), supports the independent judicial arm of government. It supports the Chief Justice, President of the Court of Appeal, and Chief Judge of the High Court, in their leadership and administrative responsibilities.

The Judicial Services Team is responsible for managing and supporting approximately 60 clerks and 70 associates who provide administrative and legal research support for 71 judges within the Senior Courts across five court locations nationwide.

These staff work under the direction of the judiciary: the support they provide enables judges to perform their duties efficiently and effectively.

Judges support needs differ between individuals and between courts. They are also evolving in response to changes in the courts operating environment including changes in technology. The small judicial services team is responsible for anticipating and responding to those changes, and for working collaboratively with the judiciary to ensure we continue to recruit, develop and retain a high calibre workforce capable of providing a consistent level of service and adapting to the rapidly evolving courts environment.

Joining Te Tari means you will become part of an organisation that welcomes and supports people of all gender identities, ages, ethnicities, sexual orientations, disabilities and religions.
