How we work

Effective ways of working in both group and one-to-one settings are key to fostering collaboration, learning, and innovation in the workplace. At the Ministry of Justice, we emphasise a variety of practices that promote teamwork, knowledge sharing, and professional development.

Collaboration and Engagement Squad

Our Collaboration and Engagement squad aims to coordinate and enable interaction between teams both within the department and with external groups.

Buddy System

Our Buddy system is a structured approach designed to integration with existing teams and enhance the learning of new processes.

Mentoring Scheme

Our mentoring scheme enahnces personal growth and development by pairing colleagues of varied experience levels.

Pair Programming

Pair Programming enhances knowledge transfer by collaborative development activities.

Code Review

Code reviews enhance quality and maintainability of our codebase by constructive critical review of new code additions before they become part of the main codebase.

Show & Tells

Our Show and Tell events allow colleagues to highlight their recent work and share progress.

Reading Groups

Our reading groups create a collaborative learning environment for the development of new skills.
