You are an experienced and confident Pensions Trustee, already doing a similar role, ready to join a growing and reputable award-winning business in the pension trustee sector. This is an exciting opportunity for a professional with strong leadership skills, a passion for pension governance, and a desire to make a meaningful impact in the industry. As Trustee Director, you will manage a portfolio of pension schemes, delivering high-quality governance and strategic oversight while working with a talented team of trustees and governance professionals.
In this role, you will take full ownership of your portfolio of pension schemes—overseeing day-to-day operations and ensuring the smooth and effective running of each scheme. You’ll be involved in complex governance work, including managing corporate sole trustee appointments, chairing or co-chairing sub-committees, and contributing to significant projects such as funding negotiations, liability management exercises, and corporate restructurings. You will also collaborate with colleagues on strategic initiatives and transactional projects, including buy-ins and insurance solutions, always ensuring that schemes are managed in line with best practices.
Business development will be a key part of your role. You’ll help grow the trustee business by using your existing network to attract new client opportunities. You’ll also nurture ongoing client relationships and contribute to marketing and thought leadership—developing content for platforms such as LinkedIn, the company website, and blogs. You’ll manage client agreements, support invoicing processes, respond to RFPs, and represent the business at external events including conferences, seminars, and industry debates.
Beyond your portfolio, you will play an important part in shaping the culture and growth of the trustee team. You’ll share your expertise with colleagues, support their training and development, and help drive the overall success of the business. The role offers a high level of autonomy, giving you the space to make a significant impact while continuing your own professional development in an environment that values continuous learning and improvement.
To succeed in this role, you’ll bring relevant professional qualifications—such as APMI, actuarial, or legal credentials, depending on your background. You’ll have significant experience in pension trustee services, ideally at a senior level, and a strong understanding of the UK pensions market. Your ability to lead at Board level, build client relationships, and contribute to business growth will be essential. You’ll also be an excellent communicator—both in writing and in person—with a collaborative and confident approach.
This is a fantastic opportunity for you if you’re self-motivated, resilient, and ready for a leadership role in the pensions industry. If you're a proactive, results-driven individual who thrives in a collaborative environment and is looking for your next career step, this role is made for you.
