  • Solid competence and background in working with occupational, trust-based pension schemes
  • Experience of working with pension schemes with defined benefit and defined contribution arrangements
  • Good technical knowledge and competence of investment strategy and asset classes
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills with a background in building excellent stakeholder relationships, both internally and externally
