Our Actuarial & Consulting Team

As part of this role you'll be working in Isio's Actuarial & Consulting team - over 400 pensions consultants and actuaries advising a diverse range of clients and stakeholders across the private, public and not-for-profit sectors.

We advise on everything from helping trustees and sponsors to manage their defined benefit plans, running large scale communications projects and implementing alternative reward and pension provision. The range of work we get involved with is vast and there'll be opportunities for you to gain lots of great, new experiences and put your skills to the test.

This particular role will be as part of the Consulting Team. The consulting team at Isio is a group of dedicated professionals working collaboratively to deliver innovative, best practice solutions for each client's pension needs.

Our consultants take a lead role in providing strategic advice to clients regarding their pension schemes, helping them navigate the complex world of pension regulations and operations.

We work with Trustee boards so that they do not have to worry about the day to day running of the scheme and use our project management skills to ensure projects run smoothly and on time, co-ordinating different advisors and parties so that everyone is part of one team. Communication is key to establishing trusted relationships with our clients and the members that they represent.

What's the role?

We're looking for consultants with industry experience to join our team. This role is to join our specialist Consulting Team.

As a challenger in the industry, we are looking for individuals with excellent pensions consulting and technical skills, a commercial outlook and an entrepreneurial mindset.

Day to day you will be:

  • As well as being involved in the technical aspects of projects, this will also involve working with and building relationships with clients directly, working as part of a team and developing those around you.
  • Assisting in the development of new business, both with existing and new clients.
As part of your role, there will be a wide range of opportunities to get involved in a lot of different areas of pensions consulting and have access to a wide range of clients within the Consulting Team
