Counsel magazine is seeking expressions of interest from barristers interested in shaping the future of the magazine through its editorial board.
The editorial board's role is to drive the direction of the editorial content of the magazine and to advise the publisher, LexisNexis, or any future partner, on matters affecting its production. In order for the board to do this effectively, it should include representatives from a broad cross-section of the Bar.

The deadline for applications is 17:00 on Friday 13 May, 2016. Candidates who have previously applied need not reapply. Your applications are under consideration.
