Ready for your next day rate pensions contract? How about an exciting newly created role working within a small in-house pension department team of two, and you will be number three, their new In-House Pensions Support!
Our client is offering a minimum 9-month term with the flexibility to work either a 36-hour, 5-day week or a pro-rata 4-day week. A competitive day rate of £300–£450 per day is available, depending on your skills and experience against the full requirements of the role. The role falls inside IR35 and will be engaged via an umbrella provider. This is a predominantly home-based opportunity, although you may be required to attend the office (London) up to two days per month, alongside occasional member, internal and external meetings as business needs dictate.
Our client is seeking an experienced Defined Benefit (DB) pensions professional to join this small friendly in-house team (with outsourced pension administration) during an exciting period of project work, reviews and development. This is a fantastic opportunity for you to take ownership of day-to-day pension operations while broadening your experience beyond traditional administration. You will work closely with third-party administrators, manage member and employer queries, support Trustee governance activities, and contribute to strategic projects and continuous process improvements.
You will bring proven experience of administering funded Defined Benefit (DB) occupational pension schemes, gained either within an in-house pensions function or through a third-party administrator. You will have a strong understanding of the regulatory and legislative framework governing DB pensions and be confident delivering compliance requirements and key projects to a high standard.
You will possess excellent organisational, analytical, numerical and IT skills, enabling you to manage multiple priorities effectively, maintain high levels of accuracy, and perform well under tight deadlines. A proactive and adaptable approach is essential, together with the ability to communicate complex information clearly and professionally to a variety of audiences, including scheme members, HR teams, senior stakeholders and Trustee Boards.
You will be confident handling sensitive, complex or unusual cases, producing high-quality reports and presentations, and building trusted relationships across the business. Experience of budget monitoring and management controls would be advantageous, as would the ability to translate policies into practical actions that deliver objectives. Above all, you will have exceptional attention to detail and the ability to work both independently and collaboratively within a small, high-performing team.
In return, this role offers you valuable exposure to governance, stakeholder management, member communications, budgeting, compliance, investment administration and strategic pensions initiatives, working closely with the Pensions Manager and Director of Pensions to help shape and deliver the Scheme's objectives.
