I established my own consulting business to contract my services and expertise back in to the pensions industry and wider market.

This involved liaising closely with EBC, software provider and employer, to ensure the builds met their requirements and was delivered in line with their staging dates. • I consulted with EBCs to ensure their AE software solutions were delivered within plan, helping them to develop the technical aspects of AE software builds, to produce correct outcomes for their employer clients.• I partnered with Independent Financial Consultants to help them develop their AE solution for smaller employers.
