Why this opportunity?
You’ll get to work on some of the most varied and interesting clients in the industry, from schemes with hundreds of members to hundreds of thousands – all without changing employer.
You will benefit from:
•    A supportive and inclusive culture

•    Involvement in cutting-edge pensions projects
•    A flexible, hybrid work environment built on trust

You will join a dedicated team managing the administration of DB occupational Pension Schemes.
