  • Candidates with pensions seat experience or a genuine interest in developing a career in pensions law

  • Individuals with a strong academic record and excellent attention to detail

  • Strong communicators who enjoy building client relationships

  • Well-organised team players with a proactive and collaborative approach

Why Apply?
