• Collaborate with team members to develop innovative insightful solutions.
• Contribute to PwC-led research, supporting our knowledge base and expertise in the delegated investment space.
• Support and guide junior team members, helping them develop their technical and consulting skills.
• Stay up to date with industry trends and regulatory changes to proactively support client needs and get involved in broader pensions-related projects, including risk transfer and data analytics.

This role is for you if:

• Strong understanding of UK Defined Benefit (DB) pension schemes, technical investment experience, and governance frameworks.
• Experience advising trustee boards and/or corporate sponsors on investment-related matters.
• Meaningful familiarity with the pensions and investment industry and the regulatory environment.
• Progress towards or attainment of FIA (Fellow of the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries) or CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst) designation.
• Familiarity with data analytics tools and their application in pensions and investment.

What you’ll receive from us:

No matter where you may be in your career or personal life, our are designed to add value and support, recognising and rewarding you fairly for your contributions.

We offer a range of benefits including empowered flexibility and a working week split between office, home and client site; private medical cover and 24/7 access to a qualified virtual GP; six volunteering days a year and much more.
