  • Providing oversight when both planning for and carrying out scheme wind up projects and putting together the relevant project plans.
  • Leading (or supporting) on strategic and technical aspects related to wind ups, e.g. comparing scheme factors to insurer factors, carrying out winding up lump sum exercises, inputting into funding reserves and providing surplus balance sheets.
  • There may also be opportunities to support other areas of the business (for example in risk transfer, actuarial consulting, scheme governance, proposition development and new business).
  • Responsible for the delivery against project plans, escalating project risks and contingencies when needed.
  • Delivering training to clients.
  • Developing and maintaining a good working relationship with your clients.
  • Ensuring all work is undertaken in a rigorous, accurate and methodical manner.
  • Ensuring comprehensive audit trails are maintained.
  • Developing knowledge and keeping uptodate with developments in pensions law and practice which are relevant to the requirements of the job.

  • Adhering to the firm's Information Security standards, policies and procedures.

Skills, Qualifications and Experience:

  • First class interpersonal and client relationship management skills.
  • First class organisational and communication abilities.
  • Proven ability to manage multiple and sometimes conflicting demands.
  • Able to coordinate activity within individual client teams.
  • Driven and motivated to develop a career in a client focused consultancy.
  • Able to demonstrate a proactive approach in developing technical, consultancy and management skills.
  • Ability to find ways of solving or preempting problems


We work alongside employers, trustees and financial services institutions, offering independent pensions, investments, benefits and risk consulting services, as well as data and technology solutions.

That's the who and the what. More important is the 'why'. The work we do may not always seem the sexiest. But it's difficult, it's complex, and it's important.

We help our clients, their employees, members and customers make decisions that have real and direct consequences on their financial futures.

For 100 years we've taken this responsibility seriously. Together, as a team and with our clients and partners, we're here to build better futures.
