• Strong communication skills and confidence working with different stakeholders
• Ability to listen, ask good questions and turn information into clear documentation
• Good attention to detail, with a structured and organised approach
• Confidence raising risks, issues or dependencies when something needs attention
• Customer-focused thinking and an interest in improving how things work
• Degree-level qualification or equivalent experience would be helpful
• Previous exposure to requirements gathering, process mapping or project support would be advantageous

Whatever your role, we reward performance and behaviour with a package that looks after all the things that are important to you. Here are some of the benefits we offer:

• The opportunity to participate in our annual, performance-related bonus plan and valuable share schemes
• Generous pension contribution
• Life assurance

• There are many discounts we offer – both for our own products and at a range of high street stores and online
• We’re creating net-zero carbon workplaces by 2030 by investing in our sustainable, modern offices across the UK, all designed to bring people together and elevate the in-person experience

At L&G, we believe it's possible to generate positive returns today while helping to build a better future for all. If you join us, you’ll be part of a welcoming, inclusive culture, with opportunities to collaborate with people of diverse backgrounds, views, and experiences. Guided by leaders with integrity who care about your future and wellbeing. Empowered through initiatives which support people to develop their careers and excel.

We care passionately about outcomes rather than attendance and are therefore open to discussing all kinds of flexible working options including part-time, term-time and job shares. Although some roles have limited flexibility due to customer demand, we accommodate requests when we can. It doesn’t matter if you don’t meet every single criterion in this advert. Instead, think about what you excel at and what else you can bring in terms of strengths, potential and connection to our purpose.
