Are you a contract pensions specialist at Senior Pensions Administrator level seeking your next role but keen to take on something slightly different? Enhance your CV by the end of the contract? Yes, then how about working for a large in-house scheme during their countdown to buy out! And whereas normally you would be doing the administration calculations, in this role you will be checking them on the pensions department pensions administration system (UPM – don’t worry if you have not used this system, as long as you have used plenty of similar ones). Sound exciting, then read on…

In-house pension administrator and/or a third-party administrator. You need to be able to work on your own initiative, and set to work checking calculations, looking at their breakdown on the system and ensuring they are correct. At the same time, you may be called on to deal with general inquiries from Pensioners to defer by both phone and email. You may also be asked to assist more senior department members with work projects linked, from GMP rectification/equalisation to data cleansing. So, this contract offers a core role, linked to some other add on work and a super opportunity to work on a scheme going to buy out.

Our client is initially offering a six-month contract, to be reviewed at the end, with potential your services might be needed for 12 months. With so much going on ideally you would work on site with the rest of the pensions team (currently 3 days but moving to 5 days in September ‘24). Our client would initially like to hear from anyone happy to do this, but if they cannot find a suitable person locally, they may throw their net wider and consider hybrid or even homeworking for a real self-starter, but they will explore on site working first. So, if applying now, we would like to hear from people happy to go on site 5 days per week. Core hours are 8-6pm, so you could go in early/late, and leave early/late to reduce any travel time, and when on site, because this contract will be PAYE only via the client’s own payroll, you will also be entitled to purchase all their lovely products at special staff discounted prices, + entitlement to various other super benefits.

If you are ready for a new contract and fresh change with a lovely in-house pension department team, please get in touch ASAP.
