- You will have an understanding of the benefit structure of one or more Public Sector schemes. Whilst preference will be given to people familiar with NHS Pensions, this could also include Civil Service, Teachers', Local Government, Police or Firefighters'schemes
- We are seeking the ability to communicate with highly educated and high-earning professionals about their benefits. This will include obtaining from them information needed to estimate benefits as well as explaining complex benefits in plain English.
- You must understand and know how to remain within the limits of information and guidance as opposed to giving regulated Financial Advice.

With the appropriate information about benefit structures and the required data and actuarial factors, you will be able to calculate:
Benefit estimations
- Current accrued benefits for active and deferred members
- The impact of on early/late retirement as well as commutation
- The impact of the Lifetime Allowance on members' benefits
- Additional benefits secured under an Added Years or Additional Pension AVC contract or through a service credit
- Benefits where these are determined by the greater of two or more different formulae (eg Final salary v Career Average)

Annual allowance calculations
- Pension Input Amounts
- Annual Allowance charges taking into account any previously unused AA
- The impact on scheme benefits of using a Scheme Pays facility to pay any Annual

Lifetime allowance calculations
- Amount of used/unused LTA
- Where the LTA is exceeded, the impact on a member's benefit amounts

Other skills/attributes we are looking for:

- You should be committed to a pensions career (ideally evidenced by progress in professional exams) and ambitious to progress within a consulting environment
- You will be comfortable communicating complex issues in a manner understood by the layman.
- As a pensions professional, you will appreciate the importance of attention to detail and a methodical approach.
- You should also have the initiative to identify problems with a given approach and seek solutions. When using a given formula or spreadsheet calculation, you will be somebody who seeks to understand what is happening and why, rather than a simple buttonpresser.
