Use your legal expertise to make sure our content is accurate, clear, and empowering for communities navigating the criminal justice system.

What will you be doing?

As a Legal Content Reviewer, you'll work alongside our Content Design Team to review and approve content before it’s published. You’ll ensure everything we share is legally sound, easy to understand, and aligned with best practice. Your work will help individuals access clear, trustworthy legal guidance when they need it most.

What are we looking for?

We're looking for legally qualified individuals who hold a law degree. Ideally, you’ll also have a current practising certificate with the SRA, BSB, or be a Fellow of CILEX - but this is preferred, not essential. Experience in criminal law, access to justice work, or in reviewing public legal information is essential. Attention to detail, strong written communication, and a real passion for making the law accessible are key.

What difference will you make?

Your expert reviews will ensure our resources are accurate and dependable, giving vulnerable individuals the confidence to understand and assert their rights. You'll be playing a crucial role in promoting fairness and clarity within the justice system.

Before you apply

To apply, please send a brief message about your qualifications and experience. After that, you’ll complete a volunteer interest form and have an informal interview. If successful, you’ll receive a formal offer and we’ll complete BPSS vetting before you start.
