We're looking for an experienced DC Pensions Administration Manager to support the establishment and stabilisation of a Defined Contribution (DC) pensions administration team.
You'll be working closely with the Head of DC Pension Administration, providing hands-on operational leadership, helping to establish the team, maintain service performance, and embed effective ways of working.
What we're looking for
Strong experience in DC pension administration.
Good technical knowledge of DC administration processes (particularly daily cash and unit reconciliations, investment switches, re balancing, unit adjustments and member/employer contributions)
Previous experience providing hands-on operational leadership (ideally within a team responsible for delivering DC administration services).
Strong understanding of operational controls, risk management and regulatory requirements within a pensions environment, including The Pensions Regulator's expectations.
Experience monitoring service performance, managing escalations and improving processes to ensure accuracy and efficiency.
Confident supporting, coaching and developing team members, while working closely with senior stakeholders and existing management.
This is more of a hands-on operational leadership role, rather than a purely strategic or transformation position. Although it is a bit of both.
Reasonable Adjustments:
Respect and equality are core values to us. We are proud of the diverse and inclusive community we have built, and we welcome applications from people of all backgrounds and perspectives. Our success is driven by our people, united by the spirit of partnership to deliver the best resourcing solutions for our clients.
If you need any help or adjustments during the recruitment process for any reason, please let us know when you apply or talk to the recruiters directly so we can support you.
