I am an actuary with over 15 years of pensions consulting experience, advising both pension scheme sponsors and trustees in relation to managing defined benefit (DB) pension scheme liabilities.

I specialise in the provision of advice relating to scheme funding arrangements, pension scheme due diligence and corporate transactions, UK and international accounting disclosures, de-risking and liability management, pension scheme audit support, PPF levy management, forensic investigations, and exert witness support.

I’ve worked for schemes ranging from sub £10 million of assets to over £1 billion and have experience of both the public and the private sector.

I have previously been Scheme Actuary to a number of trustee boards, providing advice on all regular statutory requirements as well as guiding them through major scheme changes.

I am also a member of the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries’ (IFoA) scheme funding, employer dividend and covenant leakage working party.

Outside of work, I spend a lot of my time being an unofficial taxi driver for my children or cheering them on from the sidelines at one of their numerous hobbies. However, I always make sure I take time to look after my physical health by going for walks, running, or squeezing in a workout when time allows.
