Working in our Pensions Actuarial & Consulting team at Isio:

Pension schemes are part of the backbone of the UK savings industry – relied on by millions to provide a reliable and secure income in retirement.

Balancing the costs and risks of a pension scheme as well as meeting best practice governance requirements is becoming increasingly complex – yet essential for a pension scheme to succeed.

At Isio, we constantly look at ways to innovate and develop new solutions to overcome these challenges through our Actuarial & Consulting services.

An actuarial career in pensions requires a high level of both numeracy and communication skills, as well as the enthusiasm and drive needed to gain professional qualifications and succeed in a fast-moving market.

• Calculation work either on an individual member or company basis.

• Sharing knowledge with colleagues throughout Isio to continuously improve the service we offer our clients.
