Our experienced professional trustees come from a wide range of backgrounds with specialist expertise in areas including investment, pensions governance, member communications and digital engagement, pension administration, pensions management, pensions law and, of course, master trusts.

We understand the role of a master trust trustee involves effective leadership, scrutiny, challenge, risk management, governance and operational oversight, all whilst remaining friendly and approachable. Strong, collaborative working relationships are needed to carry out the master trust trustee board’s role in advising, supporting and challenging the scheme strategist, sponsoring employer, scheme funder and scheme administrator as needed.

With one of the largest pension governance teams in the UK, we have the resources and expertise you need to ensure regulatory compliance and the success of your master trust. Whether you’re looking for a scheme secretary with the right blend of technical pensions expertise and organisation, project management and communication skills or support for your in-house trustee secretariat team on a specific project, we have the people or person you need. Our pensions governance team can be used flexibly on a long or short term outsourced contracts or on a more flexible interim basis.

We also help clients with an existing DC pension scheme review, select and transition to a DC master trust arrangement.
