Departmental overview: The Service and Solutions directorate focuses on supporting the effective running of the pension scheme and the ongoing improvement of services, systems, and customer experience. The directorate is made up of teams that work closely together across connected service, solution, assurance, and delivery activities. These teams work collaboratively to support business change, service continuity, quality assurance, and operational improvement across the organisation. This role sits within the Service Delivery team as part of the wider Service and Solutions directorate. The team helps monitor the service provided by the Scheme Administrator to support a positive customer experience and effective day-to-day operations. It contributes to service performance monitoring, issue follow-up, and the identification of risks or improvement opportunities, working closely with internal colleagues and third-party delivery partners.

You will be joining a team in which each member has an area of focus that supports the aims of the directorate and the wider business. These areas often overlap, so the role requires collaborative working across the team to help progress shared activities and achieve positive outcomes.
