Leading pensions consultancy seeking a Pensions Data Director to join them from any of their UK offices | This role is designed to aid de-risking projects so data is an enabler rather than a barrier

Oliver James are pleased to be working with a leading pensions consultancy seeking a Pensions Data Director to join them from any of their UK offices. This role is designed to aid de-risking projects so data is an enabler rather than a barrier.

As a Director within this team you will firstly understand the issues of your client, set a strategy and plan for resolving those issues and then provide technical guidance and oversight to the team to implement that solution for you to review. Typical projects may be centred around GMP, auditing data, benefits and calculations, bulk data rectification and benefit (re-)construction and data cleansing and improving electronic data. This role is not centred entirely around GMP work.

Role requirements:

• FIA qualified preferably or be qualified by experience (preferable to have an actuarial background but not essential)
• Strong knowledge and experience of UK DB Pension arrangements with a technical pensions background
• Good understanding of manual benefit calculations and processes and GMP equalisation and rectification

This is a great opportunity to work for an extremely reputable pensions consultancy in a role leading data workstreams for de-risking projects, naturally an extremely busy area of the market. The successful candidate for this role will appreciate that data can be an enabler rather than a barrier and can lead to a timely resolution to client issues. No data project here is the same, meaning no two days will be the same with a varied and fulfilling role.
