Overview
The Pension PSL market continues to be busy. We’ve seen a notable rise in the recruitment of professional support lawyers over the past couple of years, driven by succession planning, the expansion of pension teams within firms committed to long-term growth, and the ability to weather the consolidation currently reshaping the pension market in the UK.
Key Responsibilities
* Develop and implement a knowledge management framework tailored to pensions advisory
* Create and deliver engaging training sessions across technical and commercial topics
* Monitor legal and market developments, producing timely updates and thought leadership content
* Collaborate with partners on BD initiatives, including pitch materials, client alerts, and strategic campaigns
* Provide targeted support to junior partners, helping refine their external presence and internal impact
* Contribute to team cohesion and succession planning through knowledge-sharing and mentoring
Ideal Candidate Profile
* Qualified solicitor with strong pensions experience (PQE flexible)
* Passionate about knowledge, training, and strategic development
* Commercially astute with excellent communication and collaboration skills
* Experience in BD, marketing, or profile-building is advantageous
* Previous PSL experience is welcome but not essential—this role suits someone ready to step into a strategic, non-fee earning position
Why This Role
This is a rare opportunity to shape a PSL function from the ground up, within a team that values innovation, collaboration, and long-term impact. You’ll be trusted to lead, influence, and embed best practice across technical, cultural, and commercial dimensions.
