Job Description

We're working with an established professional trustee firm in London looking to appoint an Associate Trustee Executive to support a portfolio of Defined Benefit pension schemes.

This is a brilliant opportunity for someone with strong DB administration or consulting experience who wants to move closer to the trustee decision-making side of the industry.

The role will involve:

• Supporting Professional Trustees across a portfolio of DB schemes

• Preparing board packs and governance documentation

• Attending trustee meetings and taking high-quality minutes

• Reviewing scheme reports, valuations and adviser input

• Liaising with administrators, actuaries, legal advisers and investment consultants

• Supporting with regulatory and compliance requirements

We're keen to speak with individuals who:

• Have 1+ years of Defined Benefit pensions experience

• Have strong technical knowledge (retirements, transfers, manual calculations, scheme events)

• Understand scheme governance processes

• Are confident dealing with trustees and advisers

• Are working towards, or have completed, PMI qualifications

This would suit:

• A Senior Pensions Administrator ready for a step up

• An Associate Consultant seeking broader exposure

• Someone currently supporting trustee services who wants more responsibility

You'll join a collaborative team with strong growth plans, exposure to complex schemes, and genuine long-term progression opportunities within the professional trustee market.

If you're London-based and open to a conversation about moving into (or progressing within) the trustee space, feel free to apply below.
