Team Manager (Pension Projects)

Role Overview

At Aptia, our project space is thriving, and we need a Team Manager who thrives on the "muck-in" mentality. If you have a solid foundation in UK pensions and love the fast-paced energy of project delivery, we want your grit and expertise. This is a hybrid working position and can be aligned with any Aptia UK office.

What you will be doing

• Own the Workflow: You'll manage the day-to-day allocation of work, ensuring your team isn't just busy, but productive and hitting targets.


• Bridge the Gaps: Work closely with Project Coordinators and other Senior Managers to plan the pipeline. When hurdles appear, you don't just report them - you bring the solution.


• Raise the Bar: You'll be the standard-bearer for quality, mentoring your team to ensure every member is performing at their peak.


• Commercial Sharpness: You'll keep a close eye on the clock and the budget, ensuring we deliver value to our clients while hitting our internal revenue targets.


• Collaborate: You'll be part of a wider leadership network, working with Client Directors, Project Leaders and Operations Directors to keep project delivery on track.

What we're looking for

• Pensions Pedigree: Experience in UK Defined Benefit (DB) and experience in managing people and performance.


• Project Savvy: While a formal project background is an advantage, you must at least be comfortable in a high-pressure environment with moving deadlines.


• Technical Literacy: You're competent with Microsoft Office (Word/Excel) and can communicate technical issues to stakeholders without the jargon.


• The "Sleeves Up" Mentality: You're well-organised, proactive, and happy to get stuck into the detail when the team needs you.
