We are currently supporting a long-established organisation, and their small in-house pension team in the search for a Pensions Operations Manager and Project Manager. This is an exciting opportunity for a pensions professional who enjoys a varied role combining operational responsibilities with project involvement. In this position, you will take responsibility for overseeing the delivery of pensions administration services in partnership with external providers, while helping to manage processes, drive continuous business improvements, and support the delivery of pension communications across the business. You will bring strong day-to-day specialist pensions knowledge, providing commercially focused support to both internal stakeholders and external partners. The role will require you to identify and resolve operational pension issues where solutions are not always clearly defined and where previous precedent may not exist. Over the next 12–24 months, you will also play a key role in several pensions-related projects, acting as the hands-on subject matter expert responsible for delivering key pieces of work rather than managing the project itself, although you will be carefully monitoring all deliverables along the way, and working with all parties involved to ensure targets and project deadlines are met. Strong communication skills are essential for this role, as you will engage with stakeholders at all levels of the organisation — from handling BAU pensions activities and getting into the detail of operational tasks, through to confidently supporting and advising at very senior levels. This role would suit someone who enjoys both strategic exposure and practical delivery within a complex pensions environment.
