Overview
The missing piece in this pensions operation? You. If you’ve worked in third-party pensions administration for a while, you’ll know that quality isn’t just about ticking boxes. It’s about getting ahead of mistakes before they happen, spotting the pattern, asking the awkward questions, and holding the line on what “good” looks like. That’s exactly the kind of mindset this team needs.
I’m looking for someone who knows pensions admin like the back of their hand, especially DB and ideally DC too, and who’s got a firm grip on risk, compliance, and the processes that underpin good service. You’ll take the lead on all things quality across the admin business. That means owning the internal assurance framework, setting the tone on service standards, and acting as a key line of defence when it comes to risk and error management.
Responsibilities
- Designing and delivering targeted quality reviews across the administration teams
- Tracking and analysing trends in errors, complaints, and near misses to uncover root causes
- Building feedback loops with operational leaders to ensure findings lead to meaningful change
- Working closely with client teams to demonstrate quality controls during audits or governance reviews
- Helping shape internal training and guidance so the same mistakes don’t repeat
- Creating clear reporting that gives leadership a real view of performance
- Acting as the go-to person for quality assurance thinking across the pensions operation
You’re not here to play auditor. You’re here to make things better.
Qualifications and experience
- DB pensions administration (DC a bonus)
- Quality assurance or quality control in a TPA or in-house pensions environment
- Leading reviews and reporting findings to senior stakeholders
- Knowing what “great” looks like, and helping others get there
Fully flexible on location. UK-based role with hybrid working.
