Senior Pensions Administrator (In House) 12 Month FTC

HB18719

London – Hybrid, 1 day a week in the office

A rare in-house opportunity you don't want to miss.

Join a highly respected and sought-after in-house pensions team where your expertise will be valued, your skills challenged, and your contribution genuinely recognised. This 12-month fixed-term contract offers the chance to make a real impact — supporting members directly while ensuring the smooth and compliant running of a well-managed pension scheme.

If you're ready to move away from the constant client juggling of consultancy life and focus your attention on one established, well-run scheme, this could be the perfect next step.

Why this role stands out:

  • True in-house experience: Work with depth and continuity on one established scheme — no competing priorities, just quality service and meaningful outcomes.
  • Hybrid balance: One day a week in the office gives you the perfect mix of collaboration, flexibility, and autonomy.
  • Supportive culture: Be part of a close-knit, collaborative team that takes genuine pride in delivering exceptional service to members.

Responsibilities:

  • Processing both automated and manual calculations for Defined Benefit (Final Salary, Career Average, Cash Balance) and Defined Contribution scheme members – including retirements, transfers, deaths, and leavers.
  • Managing your own caseload to meet service level agreements and quality standards.
  • Liaising with the Administration Manager on complex or sensitive cases.
  • Authorising and checking the work of other pension administrators.
  • Handling regular monthly tasks and supporting payroll processing deadlines.
  • Offering practical support to team members and dealing with member queries via phone and email in a friendly, professional manner.
  • Conducting one-to-one member appointments to discuss retirement options.
  • Supporting general administration, including resolving queries via the member portal and other inbound communications.

What we're looking for:

  • Strong experience administering both DB and DC pension schemes.
  • A good understanding of pensions legislation and scheme governance.
  • Accuracy, attention to detail, and the ability to manage your own workload.
