Women and the Tax Bar

The Revenue Bar Association and Lincoln’s Inn would like to invite students and prospective pupillage applicants to learn more about tax law and opportunities at the tax bar.

We know from recent data that women are underrepresented in the pool of applicants for tax specialist sets.  Through this event, we hope to explain why the tax bar suits a wide range of people, providing intellectual challenge and the opportunity to reach the highest courts within an unusually flexible working environment.

Our panel will include Lady Justice Whipple and Lady Justice Falk, both of whom had significant experience in tax law before becoming judges of the Court of Appeal.  You will also hear from female barristers currently thriving in the field of tax law, ranging from junior barristers to experienced silks.

Location: The Ashworth Centre, Lincoln’s Inn.
Registration: 6:00pm
Talk: 6:15pm
Drinks reception: 7:15-8:30pm
Dress code: No dress code

Whilst advertised as an event to encourage women applicants to the tax bar, this event is open to students of all genders.  Aspiring pupils at any stage of study are welcome to attend, and no prior knowledge of tax law is necessary.
