We work across the three main areas detailed below.  

Trustee Secretarial Services

We act as the central point of coordination for Trustee Boards, liaising with advisers and the sponsoring employer, managing member cases, ensuring regulatory compliance, and making sure meetings are run efficiently. This includes preparing Trustee meeting agendas and papers, recording minutes and ensuring regulatory deadlines are met. In short, we keep trustees organised and informed so they can focus on making the right decisions for members.  

Governance consulting

Good governance is the foundation of a successful pension scheme. It ensures that trustees and employers make informed decisions, comply with regulations and manage risks effectively. At LCP, we help schemes achieve this through practical, structured support, including: 

  • Board Effectiveness Reviews - Assessing how well trustee boards operate and identifying ways to improve decision-making and collaboration    
  • Effective System of Governance (ESOG) Reviews - Ensuring schemes meet The Pensions Regulator’s General Code requirements 
  • Risk Management - Helping trustees identify, monitor and mitigate risks that could impact their scheme  
  • Cyber Security – providing trustees with training on cyber risk and how to respond to cyber incidents should they occur  

 Projects

Beyond day-to-day support, we also deliver projects that address specific challenges. These include: 

  • Insurer Administration Due Diligence - Reviewing insurers in the Bulk Purchase Annuity (BPA) market to ensure they can provide a good experience to members post-buy-out 
  • Third-Party Administrator (TPA) Selection – Procurement exercises to help clients choose the right administrator for their scheme 
  • Adviser Performance Reviews - Evaluating the quality and value of the advice provided by a scheme’s external advisers

LCP careers

Personal development

We have a focused departmental training programme, run over the first few weeks, to get you up to speed on key technical and professional issues in relation to pension schemes and governance. Beyond that, we run a wider programme in your early years, designed to develop the softer skills required in the job. For example, the "LCP Xtra" programme offers you an early opportunity to practise presentation skills in-house before putting them to the test in front of clients.

We also offer regular department wide training sessions, covering areas such as market “hot topics”, new and evolving areas of the pensions and governance landscape.

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.

We will support you through every stage, including:

  • A study budget for each course to cover the costs involved
  • 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
