You will develop an excellent knowledge of our proposition and strategy, make courageous, commercial decisions, always with employers and trustees in mind with a relentless focus on continuous development and improvement for a highly efficient and effective team.

You will support the  Client Relationship Directors/Managers with a focus on helping to grow and retain strategic and key clients.

  • Ability to engage and influence senior stakeholders to gain appropriate support to meet employer and trustee demands, shape meetings and resolve issues
  • Managing conflicting and varying demands, often under pressure, working with little or no supervision
  • Maintaining a high level of knowledge of the Workplace strategy, plans and propositions and keeping abreast of relevant legislative and regulatory changes
  • Strategic, innovative and commercial thinking to drive continuous improvements that will deliver results for our employers and trustees
  • Working in partnership with the Client Relationship Director/Manager to understand key influencers and proactively identifying opportunities to provide exceptional service and experience

We want to hire the whole version of you.
