Wiltshire Pension Fund - Driving Financial Resilience
We’re looking for a proactive and collaborative Projects Lead to join our Wiltshire Pension Fund Management Team.
This is a key role, helping us deliver meaningful change across the Fund by leading improvement projects that enhance service delivery and ensure we meet our responsibilities to over 170 employer organisations.
You’ll work closely with internal teams, suppliers, and stakeholders to manage a wide range of projects - from regulatory changes like McCloud, to annual benefit statements and service efficiency improvements. You’ll bring people together, develop clear plans, and see them through to successful delivery. Your work will help us improve performance, streamline processes, and make better use of resources.
We’re looking for someone who’s confident working across teams, with strong project management skills and a good understanding of change methodologies like Lean or Agile. You’ll be part of a supportive management team, helping shape the future of the Fund and ensuring we continue to deliver a high-quality service.
To be considered, you must hold a recognised project management qualification and having demonstrable experience in leading change projects using methodologies such as Lean or Agile.
