Opportunities in Pensions Administration

At Nottinghamshire Pension Fund we’re focused on administering The Local Government Pension Scheme for our active, deferred and pensioner members.  Exciting times are approaching as we work towards expanding the use of our software system, Civica UPM, to transform processes to develop a more automated approach to processing benefits and an online service for scheme members and employers.

If you have pensions experience that would be fantastic. Equally, we would welcome new members of the team and provide training accordingly.

In return, as a member of our Pension Administration Team, you’ll get real responsibility and opportunities to shine and develop a career with us including building up knowledge and understanding of the relevant pension Regulations.  You’ll join a friendly and welcoming team and receive plenty of support to help you reach your potential.
