The Pensions Regulator

This is Money shines a spotlight on what to do if you think you are missing out on your workplace pension rights this week.

After a worried reader got it in touch with columnist Sir Steve Webb about concerns their daughter’s employer was not paying contributions into her pension, he brought it to our attention.

People rightly expect their hard-earned pension contributions to be paid promptly into their scheme to help them plan and save for retirement.

To ensure people get the pension pot they are due, we first and foremost support employers to meet their legal automatic enrolment (AE) duties.

➡️But where necessary, we will use our powers to protect people’s savings, including fining employers and, in some cases, prosecution.

➡️We have recovered hundreds of millions of pounds in unpaid contributions since AE launched in 2012.

If you have concerns about your workplace pension, get in touch via our whistleblower hotline, but we always advise that, if your pension complaint relates to your employer, you should speak to them first.

My daughter's pension scheme wrote to say her firm would no longer be paying in. However, her employer has still deducted contributions in every month since.

The Pensions Regulator is seeking an Executive Director of Market Oversight to lead a pivotal function at a defining moment for the UK pensions system. As the market shifts towards fewer, larger schemes and new regulatory expectations, TPR is accelerating its transformation into a more proactive, market facing, and outcomes focused regulator. This role sits at the centre of that change, shaping how TPR protects the retirement outcomes of millions of savers and influences the future of the pensions ecosystem.

The Executive Director of Market Oversight will lead more than 250 colleagues across Supervision, Market Engagement and Communications, overseeing the schemes, trustee firms and administrators whose decisions have system wide impact — not only on savers, but on the wider UK economy.

The role requires deep market insight to develop a holistic view of risks and opportunities, drive higher standards of governance and performance, and influence behaviours across the pensions landscape. The Executive Director will ensure that regulatory expectations are met where they matter most for savers, while supporting innovation and strengthening market resilience.

Working closely with senior leaders across TPR and with key partners across government and the financial system, the Executive Director will help embed a high performance, risk based regulatory model and contribute directly to TPR’s long term strategy. This is a role for an exceptional senior leader — someone who can inspire multidisciplinary teams, navigate complexity with clarity, and represent TPR with authority and credibility across an extensive network of stakeholders.

If this aligns with your experience and ambitions , applications are invited through Odgers Berndtson: https://ow.ly/tXgI50Y9V2r
