New recruits to the Civil Service joining MoJ are expected to join at the band minimum.
These operational roles are customer-facing, requiring successful applicants to be office-based to provide HMCTS services to the public.
Standard full-time working hours are 37 hours per week. HMCTS welcomes part-time, flexible, and job-sharing working patterns, where they meet the demands of the role and business needs and are agreed prior to appointment. All applications for part-time, flexible, and job-sharing working patterns will be considered in accordance with the MoJ’s Flexible Working policy. Please note that due to business needs the minimum part-time hours available for this role is 30 hours per week.
