Senior Pensions Project Consultant

Our Pension client is continuing to grow and is now looking for a Pensions Project Consultant to join their talented Administration Projects Team (APT) with remote working.

• Pension Dashboards

The Role

• In this role, you will be responsible for leading and managing projects end to end, in line with budgets, deadlines, and objectives.
• You will also coordinate and support less experienced staff. This role is client-facing therefore you will be expected to:
• Act as point of contact generally and to explain complex issues.
• Attend client and trustee meetings to present project updates.

Essential Criteria

• Experience in a similar role dealing with public sector pension schemes.
• Commercial acumen in order to plan, manage, track, and deliver project revenue, client, and business requirements within budget.
