Falkirk Council is seeking a knowledgeable and enthusiastic person to lead one of the administration units in the Pensions Section.
You will have significant experience in a public sector pensions environment – ideally with a local authority – and have the ability to undertake, manage and deliver key performance objectives. You will need to be a confident and credible communicator who is able to foster positive working relationships with colleagues and clients.
You will have sound academic qualifications, excellent IT skills, and be competent in using MS Office products. Intellectually, you will be capable of dealing with complicated pension related concepts.
In addition to line management responsibilities, you will lead one of the three administration units and have responsibility for activities such as, and not limited to, leaver calculations, aggregations, transfers, AVCs and pensions savings. You will also be expected to cover for other Pensions Officers in their absence and contribute to wider team strategy.
This is an exciting time to be involved in the Falkirk Council Pension Fund as we respond to various Regulatory initiatives and improve member experience.
Falkirk Council is one of eleven local authorities in Scotland responsible for maintaining a pension fund. The pension fund is worth £3.3 billion and the Pensions Section looks after the rights of around 38,800 scheme members.
