Introduction
Discover a world of endless possibilities at Gallagher Benefit Services, where you'll have the power to shape the future of workplaces across industries. As a member of our team, you become the driving force behind positive change, helping clients build environments where employees thrive. Embrace the opportunity to impact lives, unlock potential, and create a legacy of remarkable transformation.
We believe that every candidate brings something special to the table, including you! So, even if you feel that you’re close but not an exact match, we encourage you to apply.
Overview
Following a period of sustained growth and success, and a whole host of award wins, we are looking to expand our actuarial consulting and analyst teams in our London, Manchester, Edinburgh, and Ipswich offices.
If you have a handful of actuarial qualifications and experience working in the UK Defined Benefit/Final Salary Pension world, then let us tell you about all of the great things that we can offer you when it comes to a supportive, collaborative culture, genuine career progression, and vastly varied work and clients.
We will fully support you in obtaining a fully-qualified Actuary status (although that's not a necessity if further exams are not of interest), and at this point, we can provide guidance and tools towards obtaining a Scheme Actuary certificate and holding responsibility for a portfolio of clients as a client manager.
We are open to flexible working and part-time requests and will be as accommodating as possible on these points!
