Pensions Governance and Professional Trustee

Pensions Governance & Professional Trustee Opportunities, UK Wide. BWD is supporting a leading professional trustee business that is looking to speak with pensions professionals at several stages of their career. The opportunities range from people building their first meaningful experience in trustee governance, through to more experienced professionals already managing clients, schemes and senior stakeholder relationships. This is a strong route for people who want broader exposure across pension schemes, closer involvement with trustee boards and a long-term career within professional trusteeship. Depending on your level, the role could involve:

• Supporting professional trustees across a portfolio of pension schemes
• Preparing for and attending trustee meetings
• Producing high-quality minutes, actions and governance documentation
• Coordinating with advisers, sponsors and other stakeholders
• Supporting governance reviews and wider pension scheme projects
• Helping ensure decisions are followed through effectively
• Building knowledge across funding, investment, administration, risk and scheme strategy
• Taking increasing ownership of clients and scheme activity
• At more senior levels, managing relationships and supporting more junior colleagues We're interested in speaking with people who have:
• Experience within UK pensions
• Backgrounds in governance, trustee secretariat, pensions consulting, administration or similar areas
• Strong written communication skills
• Good attention to detail
• Confidence working with senior stakeholders
• The ability to manage multiple priorities and client demands
• A genuine interest in developing within professional trusteeship There is flexibility on level. For someone earlier in their career, the opportunity would provide strong exposure to governance and trustee work. For more experienced candidates, there is scope to take greater ownership of client relationships, more complex governance activity and broader scheme responsibilities. The business is particularly interested in people who want to build a long-term career in professional trusteeship rather than simply move into another support role. Apply below
