At LCP we love what we do, and it shows. We help our clients make good decisions based on insightful analysis, industry expertise, and game-changing technology.
We are looking for a Senior DC Pension Consultant to join our growing specialist DC (Defined Contribution) division. Whilst the role covers the wide spectrum of advice required by a DC scheme, as can be seen below, we are looking for someone with demonstrable relationship and governance experience, good technical knowledge and a broad understanding of investment.
What will you be doing when you join the DC Practice as a Senior Consultant?
- Building and leading relations with clients and ensure client needs are identified and met, driving forward the client relationship where appropriate
- Getting involved with new business pitches for DC Consultancy work
- Maintaining up-to-date knowledge of market practice, legislation and DC governance requirements
- Leading and supporting on projects, including master trust / GPP reviews and selection exercises, advising on the buy-out and wind-up of pension arrangements, and overseeing AVC reviews
- Managing a portfolio of clients, supporting them with ongoing governance via regular meetings, working collaboratively with all stakeholders, focussing on improving member outcomes
- Working alongside and guiding investment colleagues to provide tailored advice for your clients, taking into account the client’s specific membership, as well as their circumstances and preferences
- Drafting advice to a standard that you are happy to sign off
- Getting involved with DC research on master trust / GPP providers, keeping up to date with their evolving propositions and support the research output that feeds into advice to clients
- Working within a team environment, providing leadership and guidance to others
