My client is a leading pensions consultancy and they are recruiting for a Pensions Consultant or Trustee to work at the forefront of the team. This is a first class and rare opportunity for either an experienced Consultant to work with an industry leader, to help drive the business forward as they continue to grow.

This job being available is due to steady new business wins and the successful applicant will be in a client facing role. Previous technical senior defined benefit pensions experience is essential, in addition to experience in client management within pensions. Professional qualifications such as PMI are desirable, but not essential.

You will be working with clients who have a mixture of defined benefit and defined contribution pension schemes. Technical knowledge of cradle to grave pensions administration is required, a thorough understand of scheme rules and current legislation, an ability to demonstrate and communicate your knowledge clearly and concisely.

The role can be flexed depending on skillset, capabilities and contacts but they're keen to grow their team at a senior client facing level - either those to service clients and relations or to further grow.

On a daily basis you will be managing a portfolio of clients and be liaising with Trustees, Actuaries and external parties on a daily basis to exceed their expectations and go the extra mile, working as a true ambassador for the business. The role is vital to the success of the team and your impact and daily duties will instantly add value.

An excellent basic salary is on offer for the successful candidate, plus an award winning benefits package. You will be joining a growing company, with long term opportunities in successful, close knit team in Edinburgh but part of a national set up with some of the industry's best.

If this opportunity is of interest to you and you have the DB or final salary pensions experience, including client contact, then please get in touch to Alison Curran on by submitting your cv for review or calling for a confidential discussion about this and other roles also available.
