31 Experienced Professional jobs in Davenport

IGA is partnered with one of our long-standing clients — a FTSE250-listed business with a fast-growing professional services arm — to help grow their team of independent professional pension trustees.

We’re looking for experienced and motivated professionals with deep pensions or investment backgrounds who are ready to make the transition into independent trusteeship. This is a unique opportunity to join a highly respected, purpose-driven organisation offering full support, a clear path to Trustee Director level, and the chance to work on complex schemes in a collaborative, people-first environment.

Do you have over 10 years of experience in pensions, investments, or a related field?

Are you looking for a meaningful career move with long-term impact and high visibility?

If so, this could be your next chapter.

The Firm

Our client is an exceptional proposition — combining the stability of a 132-year-old FTSE250 investment trust with the agility and growth of a fast-moving professional services firm. With over 250 professionals across six business lines, they’ve built a reputation for integrity, technical excellence, and delivering peace of mind to clients.

As part of their independent professional trusteeship team, you’ll work across a broad mix of pension schemes — including sole trusteeships, DB and DC schemes, and more complex governance arrangements. You’ll be supported by a team of experienced Trustee Directors and in-house governance professionals, with full access to the firm’s established client base and infrastructure.

This is a company that’s actively shaping a culture of trust, collaboration, and innovation — and this role offers the chance to play a key part in that journey.

In this role, you will:

• Represent the business as an independent trustee across a portfolio of small to mid-sized schemes, corporate sole trustee mandates, and larger schemes (with the support of senior colleagues)
• Take day-to-day ownership of scheme governance, ensuring high-quality, balanced decisions across funding, investment, risk, and member outcomes
• Help shape best practices and processes across governance and client service
• Engage in business development — helping win new clients and building strong, trusted relationships
• Work in close collaboration with internal teams and stakeholders to ensure schemes are effectively advised, documented, and governed
• Progress toward a Trustee Director position, with full support and training provided

Who we’re looking for:

• At least 10 years of professional experience, including 10+ years in pensions, investments, actuarial, legal, or related roles
• A relevant professional qualification — e.g. Actuarial, Legal, Accounting, Investment, or Pensions (PMI)
• Strong interpersonal and stakeholder skills — comfortable working directly with clients, sponsors, and boards
• A confident communicator, able to manage complexity and lead decision-making
• A self-starter mindset — someone who thrives in a collaborative, high-trust environment
• Business development or committee/trustee board experience is desirable but not essential
• Committed to a long-term career in trusteeship, including completing the PMI Award in Pension Trusteeship and the Trustee Toolkit

Why this stands out:

• Trusted, repeat client: We’ve worked closely with this business for years — they value their people and invest in long-term growth
• Career pathway: This is a clearly defined route into trusteeship, with active support to progress to Trustee Director level
• Stretch and exposure: You’ll work on complex governance arrangements, sole trusteeships, and a wide variety of scheme types
• Supportive team: You’ll join a collaborative group of experienced trustees and governance professionals in a firm with flat structure and real mentorship
• Purpose-led: Be part of a business delivering meaningful outcomes for pension scheme members and the broader pensions industry

If this sounds like a fit , reach out to Oliver Clark for a confidential conversation — either via LinkedIn or at .

We look forward to hearing from you.
