About Us

Court Services Victoria provides corporate services and facilities to support the performance of the judicial, quasi-judicial and administrative functions of Victoria's courts and tribunal, Judicial College and Judicial Commission.

Collectively, Victoria's Supreme, County, Magistrates', Children's, and Coroners courts, the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT), the Judicial College of Victoria, the Judicial Commission of Victoria, and Court Services Victoria (CSV) are referred to as the `Courts Group'.

Our people enable the Courts Group to deliver on each jurisdiction's own strategic priorities while also pursuing strategic opportunities that are interconnected and deliver benefits more broadly.

SCV

The Supreme Court of Victoria is the highest court in Victoria and comprises the Court of Appeal and the Trial Division. The Court deals with major criminal and civil matters, plus appeals against decisions of lower courts.

The Supreme Court of Victoria recognises that its people are integral to its ability to meet and exceed community expectations and to achieve its goal of being an outstanding superior court. We continually strive to create a high-performance workplace that is characterized by creativity, innovation, flexibility, and quality delivery.

About the Role

The Honourable Justice Lesley Taylor is seeking a legally qualified individual to be her associate, with an anticipated start on 7 September 2026. The successful applicant will gain valuable experience in civil and criminal appellate matters in the Court of Appeal division of the Supreme Court of Victoria.

Duties of an associate include:

assisting in the management and coordination of the Judge's judicial and administrative responsibilities;
preparing research memoranda and case summaries, and assisting in the production of judgments, including proofreading and editing;
clerking in court, and using courtroom technology to ensure proceedings are transcribed and technological aids are readily available to counsel;
assisting in managing the Judge's chambers; and
accompanying the Judge to circuit courts in regional Victoria, as and when required.

About you

The successful applicant will be admitted to legal practice, and subsequent post-graduate experience is desirable. You should have a genuine interest in criminal law. Excellent research, writing skills and strong academic credentials are essential. One or more of: experience on the editorial committee of a university law journal; mooting; research work for an academic; and/or a higher degree in law, are preferred.

To be successful in the role, you will possess the following:

demonstrated ability in legal research, writing and statutory interpretation;
strong interpersonal and communication skills;
a high degree of sensitivity and professionalism;
excellent computer literacy;
well-developed proofreading skills; and
an excellent academic record.

The role requires a high degree of sensitivity and professionalism as you will be working closely with Judges, court staff, legal practitioners, and members of the public.

How to apply

Applications comprising a cover letter, resume, a certified copy of your academic transcript, and two recent samples of relevant written work should be submitted online, via the Victorian Government Careers website. The closing date for applications is 11:59pm on Sunday 26 July, 2026. Applications will be considered as they are received and you may be contacted prior to the application close date.

Applicants are not required to separately address the key selection criteria.

Please note: due to the nature of the work of the Court, this role may involve exposure to confronting, graphic and/or distressing material.

For any enquiries regarding this expression of interest, please contact Rebekah Goulevitch (Court of Appeal and Criminal Division Judicial Services Coordinator) at [email protected] or on (03) 8600 2122.
