Legal & General (L&G) is a leading UK financial services group and major global investor.

We’ve been safeguarding people’s financial futures since 1836, and strive to build a better society, while improving the lives of our customers and creating value for shareholders.

We are one of the world’s largest asset managers and provide powerful asset origination capabilities. Together, these underpin our retirement and protection solutions: we are an international player in pension risk transfer, in UK and US life insurance, and in UK workplace pensions and retirement income.

L&G Asset Management is one of Europe’s largest asset managers, providing clients and partners with complex, responsible investment solutions, across public and private markets. As a global investor, we are present where our clients most need us – from Hong Kong and Singapore, to Chicago and major European financial hubs.

Created by combining our investment management (LGIM) and asset origination (LGC) capabilities, our Asset Management division works with our Institutional Retirement and Retail divisions to benefit our clients and customers – which include individual savers, pension scheme members and global institutions – and deliver enhanced shareholder returns.

Joining us means becoming part of a market-leading team, with capabilities across the full spectrum of asset classes, with an enduring commitment to responsible investment and creating long-term, sustainable value for our clients and partners.

• Managing the end-to-end delivery of daily, weekly, and quarterly client deliverables
• Collaborating with internal teams and third-party vendors to resolve reporting issues
• Supporting the production of institutional investor reports and management information
• Promoting process improvements and control enhancements across reporting functions
• Contributing to a flexible and knowledgeable team environment

Who we’re looking for:

• Ability to interpret complex data with a high level of accuracy and attention to detail
• Excellent communication skills and confidence in stakeholder engagement
• Familiarity with regulatory frameworks such as UCITS, MiFID II, and PPF
• Proficiency in Excel and reporting tools like Bloomberg, FactSet, or Power BI
• A degree in finance, economics, or a related field (professional qualifications a plus)
• A proactive, collaborative mindset with a drive for continuous improvement

Whatever your role, we reward performance and behaviour with a package that looks after all the things that are important to you. Here are some of the benefits we offer:

• The opportunity to participate in our annual, performance -related bonus plan and valuable share schemes
• Generous pension contribution
• Life assurance
• Healthcare Plan (permanent employees only)
• At least 25 days holiday, plus public holidays, 26 days after 2 years’ service. There’s also the option to buy and sell holiday
• Competitive family leave
• Participate in our electric car scheme, which offers employees the option to hire a brand-new electric car through tax efficient salary sacrifice (permanent employees only)
