The Junior Assistant to the Minister for Magic is a high-ranking position in the Ministry of Magic, whose duties are to assist the Minister for Magic. Percy Weasley is the only person known to have held the title. Cornelius Fudge offered it to him in an attempt to spy on the Dumbledore-loyal Weasley family. According to Ronald Weasley, the position is very good for someone who had graduated from Hogwarts only one year earlier. Percy eventually resigned in 1998, when he realised the Death Eaters had overtaken the Ministry.
