WTW Jobs

At WTW we have an enviable client list, a reputation for excellent consulting advice and innovative solutions, delivered by highly skilled colleagues with access to robust resources.  

We have a fantastic opportunity in our dedicated national DC Consulting team for anyone looking to progress to a more client facing consulting role. We’ll help you develop your consulting skills enabling you to deliver advice to some of the UK’s largest employers and most innovative DC Schemes. Alongside this, we offer you the chance to work in an exciting team, whilst ensuring your flexibility, hybrid working and work/life balance – aspects central to the way we work.

Who we are:

• We’re an exciting, inclusive and collaborative team that put our clients first.

• We share ideas to come up with creative and innovative solutions

• We support each other, take time to get to know our colleagues and value our differences

The Role

We’ll build you up to managing a portfolio of (smaller) clients and assisting senior consultants to deliver advice to larger/more complex employers and trustees in relation to their DC schemes and wider savings plans. This covers a multitude of areas including scheme design, investment strategy, communications, retirement support, provider selection and governance.

The role will involve:

• Researching for and drafting advice and technical papers for review by senior colleagues

• Reviewing advice papers drafted by others

• Interacting with clients, including attending client meetings in both a lead and assisting role

• Managing projects for clients from scoping through to delivery

More broadly, you’ll contribute to internal client and colleague related specialist groups and play an important role in training and developing our more junior colleagues. If you’re also keen to build your sales skills, you’ll have the opportunity to contribute to new business activity, in a developing rather than leading role.

We understand flexibility is key to supporting an inclusive and diverse workforce and WTW offers flexible working opportunities (full time or part time) in a ‘hybrid’ style, with a mix of remote, in-person and in-office interactions dependent on the needs of the team, role and clients.

• Detail oriented with good communication skills

• Willing to learn and ‘muck in’ to exceed client and colleague expectations

• Able to work efficiently within budgets without jeopardising quality of work.

• Proficiency with Microsoft PowerPoint and Excel would be advantageous but not essential
