The role

Are you looking for a role which incorporates numerical and customer service skills? Do you want to study towards professional qualifications?

As a pension administrator you will look after members of pension schemes across all aspects of their pension journey; when they join the scheme, when they retire and take their benefits or when they transfer to another pension scheme, and you will answer all manner of queries.

A large part of the role involves calculating pension benefits and communicating with members, so you should be comfortable with numbers and excel spreadsheets, and talking on the phone. You will work as part of a team of more experienced administrators dealing with enquiries from our clients, financial advisers, employers and HMRC.

  • Drafting administration reports — Collating data and producing reports for clients.
  • Member record maintenance — Updating salary data, addresses, marital status, and other personal details to ensure accurate benefits.
  • Ensuring compliance — Interpreting scheme rules, following regulatory requirements, and supporting governance.
  • Customer service delivery — Providing consistent, courteous, and accurate service aligned with SLAs.
  • Financial administration — Preparing cashflow forecasts and working alongside our payroll and finance team to ensure pension benefits are paid out on correctly and on time.

You will develop a working knowledge of pensions and an awareness of client requirements.

There are a range of professional qualifications to study for and study support and financial rewards are offered.
