Pensions Consulting and Governance - Senior Manager

We’re growing and want you to be a part of our journey.

Isio’s Consulting Team, part of our wider Actuarial & Consulting team of over 400 pensions consultants and actuaries advising a diverse range of clients and stakeholders across the private, public and not‑for‑profit sectors, is a group of dedicated professionals working collaboratively to deliver innovative, best‑practice solutions for each client’s pension needs.

Our consultants take a lead role in providing strategic advice and best‑practice governance to clients regarding their pension schemes, helping them navigate the complex world of pension regulations and operations. We work with trustee boards and companies so that they do not have to worry about day‑to‑day running of the scheme, using our project management skills to ensure projects run smoothly and on time, co‑ordinating different advisors and parties so that everyone is part of one team.

Communication is key to establishing trusted relationships with our clients and the members they represent.
