London, Greater London, United Kingdom The Pensions Ombudsman Full time
Position Overview

The Pensions Ombudsman is an independent entity in the United Kingdom dedicated to addressing grievances and conflicts associated with private pension schemes.

As a neutral organization, we play a crucial role in investigating and resolving complaints that have not been satisfactorily addressed regarding pension management.

Our services are provided at no cost, and we possess the legal authority to issue decisions that are final, binding, and enforceable in a court of law.

Our mission is both demanding and prominent, as we strive to deliver equitable outcomes for individuals while also identifying areas for enhancement within the pensions sector.

We handle approximately 9,000 inquiries and 7,000 pension-related complaints annually, with many being resolved without necessitating a comprehensive Ombudsman ruling.

Key Responsibilities

As a pivotal member of the leadership team at the Pensions Ombudsman, you will oversee our entire portfolio of corporate services and strategic initiatives.

Your role will encompass operational management of essential support functions, including:

  • Finance
  • Human Resources
  • Communications
  • Governance
  • Stakeholder Engagement
  • Program Delivery
  • Digital Solutions
  • Insights and Technology

Success in this role will hinge on your ability to ensure that our teams are equipped with the appropriate blend of specialized knowledge and versatility, enabling them to respond effectively and adaptively to service delivery challenges.

Qualifications

Reporting directly to the Chief Operating Officer, you will be an accomplished senior leader with a proven track record in steering and enhancing a diverse range of corporate support services within a similarly intricate organization.

Your leadership style is collaborative, with a clear vision for continuous improvement and transformation.

This position offers the opportunity to deliver essential services to consumers during critical times.

We promote flexible working arrangements and foster a motivated and engaged team environment, providing the foundation necessary for you to achieve outstanding results.

We are committed to diversity, inclusion, and employee wellbeing, striving to cultivate a workplace where every individual feels appreciated and has a sense of belonging.
