Matching with a mentor: relevant topics
Please indicate below any topics where you feel you have relevant experience. The inclusion of further information on the relevant topics may help us with the matching process, but is entirely optional. Note that, unfortunately, we do not have the resources for the matching process to be carried out externally, and so your form will be reviewed by a member of the RBA Committee (currently either Laura Poots or Marika Lemos). Please see the Introduction and FAQs at revenue-bar.org for the process, and for details on how to request that someone other than Laura or Marika deals with your form. The contents of the form will be treated as confidential. Your name will be shared with potential mentees, but the contents of this form will not be shared.

Further Information
Would you prefer to be matched with someone outside your current Chambers or Employer, or are you happy to consider a mentor within your current Chambers or Employer?
Is there anything else you would like us to know for the matching process?
Unless a mentor requests otherwise (either in their initial email or at a later date), completed forms will be retained for 2 years after a mentor has been matched with a mentee. The information on this form will be used only for the purposes of matching mentors and mentees and administering the mentoring scheme, subject to any professional reporting obligations.
Pressing submit will send your completed form to mentoring@revenue-bar.com
