years of experience in pensions project management, with every colleague fully PRINCE2 accredited.
Our approach is designed to fit the needs of the trustee board, empowering you to manage complex projects with confidence.
Project management in a pensions context is about providing the structure, coordination and oversight needed to successfully deliver a project. Pension scheme change projects often involve multiple advisers, stakeholders, governance requirements and interconnected workstreams. Our team brings those elements together – ensuring activities remain aligned, risks are managed and projects progress efficiently towards their objectives. At IGG, we combine pensions expertise with project management expertise, helping trustees navigate complex projects with confidence.
Successful delivery of projects in a pensions environment requires more than project management expertise alone. It requires a deep understanding of how pension schemes operate, how trustee boards make decisions and how advisers interact throughout a project. Our pensions project management service combines technical pensions knowledge with project delivery expertise, ensuring projects are both well-managed and appropriately governed.
Our approach is designed around the needs of the trustee board. We establish clear governance structures, reporting frameworks and decision gateways from the outset, ensuring trustees have visibility of progress and the information they need to make effective decisions. By managing day-to-day coordination and delivery activity, we allow trustees to focus on strategic priorities while maintaining confidence that projects remain on track.
Our team acts as the central point of coordination across all stakeholders involved in a project. We bring together advisers, sponsors and trustees into a single delivery framework, ensuring activities are aligned, dependencies are understood and progress is maintained throughout the project lifecycle. IGG’s role is to create the structure, discipline and momentum needed to deliver successful outcomes for your project.
Each adviser within the project remains responsible for their own specialist area and for delivering their own workstream. Our team complements this expertise by coordinating activity across all parties – ensuring that everyone is working towards the same objective and that dependencies between workstreams are identified and managed effectively. This allows advisers to focus on what they do best, while maintaining alignment across the wider project.
Change projects generate a significant amount of operational activity, stakeholder engagement and detailed decision-making. We manage this activity on behalf of the trustee, filtering operational detail and escalating key issues at the appropriate time. This allows trustees to focus on the strategic decisions that will have the greatest impact on the project and its outcomes.
We continuously monitor progress against agreed plans, timelines and objectives, as well as identifying risks, managing dependencies, coordinating stakeholders and maintaining visibility across all workstreams. By providing proactive oversight and regular reporting, we help to ensure that projects continue moving forward efficiently and effectively.
Effective governance is fundamental to successful project delivery. Our service establishes clear reporting structures, decision-making frameworks and governance processes that align with trustee and sponsor requirements. This process ensures the right information reaches the right people at the right time, supporting efficient and informed decision-making throughout the project.
We support a wide range of pension scheme projects, including risk transfer transactions, endgame planning, scheme mergers, governance reviews, adviser transitions, rectification exercises and other complex change initiatives. Every project is different, which is why we tailor our service to the specific needs, objectives and governance requirements of each scheme.
Our service is designed to be flexible. We can provide project guidance, project oversight, project support or full end-to-end project management, depending on the needs of the scheme and the complexity of the project. Whether you require strategic challenge, additional oversight or comprehensive delivery support, we can tailor our involvement to provide the most appropriate level of support for your scheme and needs.
