About us
At First Actuarial, we give trustees and employers the right blend of pension advisory services for their needs. We’re all about working with them to help employees to save enough money to retire on. That makes our business a very people-focused one. Everyone at First Actuarial embraces the ethos that clients come first. Our professional integrity runs deep, and that’s why both clients and our talented staff are with us for the long haul. What gives First Actuarial its sticking power? ★ All businesses claim to be different from the rest, but we really are. We work in small teams, offering early opportunities for client-facing activities, not always available in larger companies. We provide supportive and friendly work environments, and our commitment to work-life balance is real. ★ You’ll find no meaningless targets at First Actuarial. Accuracy, compliance and client commitment are what matter to us, over spurious targets and awards. When we say we go the extra mile for our clients, we mean it. We’re always open to new ideas – the services we offer and software tools we develop meet real client needs. ★ Professional development is high on our list of priorities. To fuel our stellar growth, we’re always interested in hearing from talented individuals. At the same time, we are committed to training and developing our own people. Our partners share their knowledge and expertise, working side by side with their teams on a daily basis. All our employees see themselves as ambassadors for First Actuarial, and take individual responsibility for their clients and their work. We have offices in Basingstoke, Leeds, London, Manchester, Peterborough and Tonbridge.

We love Pamela Kokoszka’s article about Royal Mail’s journey to its newly launched CDC pension scheme. At one point, it describes how the CWU got First Actuarial involved to find a solution that would “bring back equality and pension provision for all postal workers”. Please note that the article is gated.
After Royal Mail CDC scheme launched last week, I spoke to Terry Pullinger and Angela Gough about what it took to get the scheme to where it is today. Have a read on Investment & Pensions Europe (IPE)
