-
Providing technical updates, insights and recommendations to a range of stakeholders.
What you'll bring:

-
Strong understanding of pension legislation and its practical application.
-
Ability to explain complex technical information to non-specialists.
-
Strong analytical skills with the ability to interpret complex data.
