Posting Description:
**Senior Public Sector Pension Consultant - Governance**

Do you have business management, governance or compliance experience (pensions or otherwise)?

Are you looking for a job where every day is different, working with a wide range of clients, team members and wider Aon colleagues?

Working in our market-leading and award winning Public Sector Team as a Senior Governance Consultant could be exactly the role you are looking for

This role can be office based at multiple of our UK offices including, Birmingham, Bristol, Epsom, Farnborough, Glasgow, Leeds, London, Manchester or St. Albans. The role can also be home working or hybrid providing full flexibility to suit various individual needs.

As an organization, we are united through trust as one inclusive, diverse team, and we are passionate about helping our colleagues and clients succeed.

**What the day will look like**

Governance of public sector pensions schemes is evolving at a rapid pace. Our clients are mainly Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) administering authorities but we also work with other public sector scheme managers and employers.

Some of the specific challenges you will be helping our clients overcome include:

- ensuring robust decision making, performance measurement, business planning and risk management
- supporting with an increasingly difficult recruitment and retention environment of pension team staff
- managing all risks including cybercrime and business continuity
- ensuring equality, diversity and inclusion are integrated to all aspects of scheme management
- ensuring a high level of knowledge and skills given the ever-changing environment (McCloud remedy, responsible investing/climate targets etc)
- providing support to develop and review relevant strategies and policies
- supporting on evolving communications strategies to ensure strong levels of engagement
- the transition to the Pension Regulator’s new General Code
- the expected Good Governance changes from UK Government
- the ongoing management of pension committees and boards

Working with your colleagues in our Public Sector Retirement Team, you’ll also help develop and market new client solutions, using expertise from within the public sector team and Aon’s wider global services.

**How this opportunity is different**

Every day truly is different when it comes to helping our clients with their governance related challenges There is such a wide range of support that they need - whether that is because they don’t have the expertise, just want some independent assurance or they just don’t have the time.

At Aon, we are so fortunate to be working with such wide ranging expertise across the business which means we can truly provide services that are market leading. We have many nationally recognised leaders in public sector pensions within our team. In addition, Aon’s wider specialist teams in areas such as human capital, cybercrime, business continuity and communications enables us to bring a higher level of expertise to public sector pensions challenges, serve our clients' unique needs every step of the way.

**Skills and experience that will lead to success**
- Relevant experience in a governance or business role, or relevant experience in a pensions environment
- Strong understanding of governance, including most or all of these areas; what it takes to make good decisions, risk management, performance monitoring/compliance and business planning
- Strong communication and interpersonal skills; comfortable in leading discussions with all levels from Committee/Board members to more junior employees, with confidence in expressing your viewpoint
- Self-motivating, able to encourage and develop other colleagues, and work well within diverse teams including in a leadership role
- Whilst having able to advice at a strategic level, also having an eye for detail
- Ability to use problem solving skills and to then create solutions and implement change
- Collaborative approach to work alongside being able to make decisions as required
