• Owning day-to-day client relationships for a number of schemes
• Supporting senior colleagues on larger or more complex clients
• Reviewing technical work and maintaining high quality standards
• Contributing to business development, networking and thought leadership where appropriate
• Supporting and developing junior members of the team

What we're looking for

• Qualified actuary with strong post-qualification experience
• Solid background in UK pensions, ideally within a consulting environment
• Experience leading client relationships or acting as a key client contact
• Comfortable advising both at a technical and strategic level
• Confident communicator with trustees, pensions managers and senior stakeholders
• Motivated, collaborative and keen to help develop others

What's on offer

• Competitive salary and bonus
• Comprehensive benefits package
• 25 days holiday plus the option to buy more
• Flexible and hybrid working
• Strong support for career development and progression
• A genuinely collaborative and inclusive working culture

If you're an experienced pensions actuary looking for a role with real client exposure, flexibility and long-term development, this could be well worth a conversation.
