Pensions Consultant Manager – Consulting Team

Isio's Consulting Team, part of our wider Actuarial & Consulting team of over 400 pensions consultants and actuaries advising a diverse range of clients and stakeholders across the private, public and not-for-profit sectors, is a group of dedicated professionals working collaboratively to deliver innovative, best practice solutions for each client's pension needs.

Our consultants take a lead role in providing strategic advice to clients regarding their pension schemes, helping them navigate the complex world of pension regulations and operations.

We work with Trustee boards so that they do not have to worry about the day to day running of the scheme and use our project management skills to ensure projects run smoothly and on time, co-ordinating different advisors and parties so that everyone is part of one team. Communication is key to establishing trusted relationships with our clients and the members that they represent.

What’s the role?

As a challenger in the industry, we are looking for individuals with excellent pensions consulting and technical skills, a commercial outlook and an entrepreneurial mindset to join our team.

Day to day you will be:

1. Supporting in the delivery of advice to clients – this may include managing key client projects directly, and/or supporting our partners and directors to deliver to our clients.
2. Involved in the technical aspects of projects, working with and building relationships with clients directly, working as part of a team and developing those around you.
3. Assisting in the development of new business, both with existing and new clients.

As part of your role, there will be a wide range of opportunities to get involved in different areas of pensions consulting and have access to a wide range of clients within the Consulting Team.

Whatever you’re looking for, we can build a role to suit you and help you develop.

Key skills and experience

We’re looking for new colleagues with the following skills and expertise – but, please do apply if you don’t hit every requirement and still think you would be great for the role. Our business is better with a diverse range of experience, so we’ll consider each application on its own merits.

1. Experience – a pensions consultant, secretary or in-house pensions manager with past relevant industry experience – actuarial / PMI qualifications useful but not necessary.
2. A great communicator – someone who can explain complex problems in a simple way to help everyone around the table understand.
3. Enthusiasm and motivation - a great deal of desire to solve problems and deliver excellent advice.
4. Excellent project management and client delivery skills – especially when balancing multiple demands.
5. A great team worker – this will either be as part of a team, or managing a team, depending on your experience.
6. Commercial skills – to help us develop our business and look for new opportunities.

Demonstrated Commitment to our Core Purpose

1. Power in Partnership: We work in partnership with our clients & each other – building open and trusted relationships. Working together allows us to deliver the best for our clients.
2. Future Focus: We want to push our industry forward by solving problems in better ways that benefit both our clients & society.
3. Strength in Difference: We work with diverse perspectives to find better solutions. Working with differences makes us stronger.
4. People First: We recognise that pensions is a people business. People are the source of Isio’s expertise and it is people’s lives that we affect through our advice.
