Te Haeata/The Opportunity
As a Court Registry Officer, you will work with a team responsible for the successful operation of the Court.

You will be able to communicate confidently with Judges within the courtroom and their chambers, as well as other members of the judiciary.

**Your primary responsibilities will include**:

- Court Taking - You will help facilitate the smooth operation of the Court, including introducing Judges (in English and Te Reo Māori), working closely with them in the Courtroom and Chambers, managing jurors, and general administration of the Court.

- Self-aware - our participants are unique, and you will be confident working, individually and as a team, across various situations.
- Able to multi-task - some of our processes are repetitive, so you will be able to manage conflicting priorities and move from one task to another quickly.
- Willing to learn - legislation and court processes are always changing, and you can adapt and maintain knowledge capital.
- Resilient - As a Court Registry Officer, you might work on sensitive cases, sometimes at high volume.

Even if your experience looks a little different from what we have outlined and believe you can bring value to the role, we'd love to hear from you
