Job description

This is an exciting opportunity to join an award-winning Pension Fund and build a rewarding career within a forward-thinking and supportive team. As a Pensions Administrator, you will help deliver LGPS services to over 87,000 members by maintaining accurate pension records, processing benefits and transactions, and working with members, employers and stakeholders. You will ensure compliance with pension regulations while developing your skills through a structured career progression pathway.

If you enjoy helping others, take pride in delivering excellent service, and have a sharp eye for detail, join us in making a real difference to our members' pension experience. This is a career development role designed to support your professional growth. The position operates across two levels, enabling successful candidates to progress from Level 1 to Level 2 by demonstrating competence, accuracy and the ability to undertake increasingly complex work with minimal supervision. Previous pensions experience is not essential. We are looking for individuals who:

• are numerate
• customer-focused
• keen to learn

Candidates who meet certain criteria are given priority when we shortlist.

We are committed to supporting a healthy work-life balance and offer a range of flexible working arrangements, including job sharing where appropriate. Following a comprehensive training and induction period, there will also be the opportunity for a combination of office and home working.

We offer a supportive and inclusive workplace where colleagues are encouraged to share ideas, contribute to continuous improvement and celebrate success together. We are committed to helping our employees develop their skills and achieve their career aspirations.

For those interested in further professional development, we can provide support towards obtaining a recognised pensions qualification. This will include some commitment to home study.

We offer a diverse range of benefits to help and support you during your employment.
