Welcome

Pensions Age Northern Conference

Thursday 11th June 2026
Park Plaza Leeds

The popular Pensions Age Northern Conference returns to Leeds, bringing together pension schemes and industry professionals for a day of insight, debate and networking at a pivotal moment for UK pensions.

The sector continues to face significant challenges, but it is also entering a period of profound change and opportunity. Consolidation and productive finance remain high on the government’s agenda; pensions dashboards are set to transform how savers engage with their retirement; DB surpluses are prompting schemes and employers to reassess end-game strategies as new options emerge; and uncertain financial markets are keeping funds vigilant and adaptable. At the same time, the drive for improved value for money underpins every aspect of scheme design and governance, while pensions adequacy and member engagement remain firmly in focus.

These and other critical issues will be examined throughout the one-day conference via expert presentations, lively panel discussions and interactive Q&A sessions with those helping to shape the future of UK pensions.

Open to pension scheme managers, trustees, finance directors, advisers, and HR and pensions professionals, the conference offers timely insight, practical guidance and actionable takeaways to support more effective scheme management across DB, DC and hybrid arrangements. Sessions will span regulation, investment, technology, administration, communication, de-risking and more.

Join us in Leeds to hear directly from regulators, industry bodies, leading providers and investment specialists, and to reconnect with peers from across the pensions community.

FREE £10 M&S Voucher for all delegates that attend on time and remain all day
