Pensions & Investment Technology graduate programme
Some models are also used directly by LCP’s clients, to monitor the funding positions of their pension schemes and track the performance of their assets. We work closely with these two departments to understand their modelling requirements, as well as bringing our own ideas to the table to keep LCP at the forefront of this area.

Personal development
Over your first few months at LCP, our focused training programme will teach you to code, assuming no prior knowledge. You will also attend training sessions on pensions and investments, to allow you to build up the relevant domain knowledge for working on our models.
You will also benefit from on the job coaching from experienced members of the team and we have regular team and department wide training sessions to share knowledge and experience on both coding / wider technology and pensions / investment issues.
Additionally, our learning management system, LCPLearn, provides access to hundreds of training resources, including workshops and e-learning – allowing an individual to self-serve and drive their own learning.
As a consulting actuary, a key part of your future role will involve presenting advice and ideas to our clients clearly and in a way that is easy to understand. We realise that for some, this will be a new experience – and possibly a daunting prospect! But there is no need to worry, our training programme is specifically designed to help you develop the skills and confidence you need to be a successful consultant.
Our “LCP speaking club" and "LCP Xtra" programmes offer additional opportunities for you to practise presentation skills in-house before putting them to the test in front of clients.
Professional qualifications
Depending on your circumstances, including prior degree course and personal preference, we will support you with studying for the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries (IFoA) qualification, or Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) qualification, or IMC. There will also be options to take short courses for qualifications relating directly to model development.
We will support you through every stage of your qualifications, including:
- Financial support to cover at least two attempts at each exam
- A generous study leave allowance each year.
- A study mentor to advise you on your route through the exams and discuss any queries that you may have.
Future career
We believe the dynamic and variable nature of our work makes it exciting and enjoyable. As a graduate on the team, you will learn to code in C# (as well as gain exposure to other languages) and will be building impactful technology before you know it.
As a business, we’re looking to technology to help us continue to innovate and stay ahead of the market, which makes it an exciting time to join the team – our team has doubled in size over the past few years!
