Our new corporate strategy outlines a bold and challenging vision of how pensions regulation should evolve to keep pace with a change in the scale and nature of the industry. We are at the start of that journey. Join us to find out what part you can play.

- maintain accurate records of TPR’s key political stakeholders; monitor debates and the views of Parliamentarians on matters relevant to TPR
- produce a regular TPR update (monthly) for MPs and Peers to include key announcements, press releases, consultations etc
- deputise for the Parliamentary Affairs Manager when needed and take personal responsibility for personal development in line with TPR’s values and objectives

**Essential and desirable criteria**:

- Excellent writing skills to draft briefings and respond to correspondence, including from MPs, across a range of workplace pension issues.
