Administrator - Fixed Term Contract - #1754913

Are you passionate about supporting Armed Forces Veterans? If so, we want you on our team!

At Shared Services Connected Limited, we're seeking several Administrators to join our Defence Business Service and support our veterans. Your mission will be to solve backlogged pension cases, providing a thorough pension re-assessment processing service for personnel transitioning from or who have already left the Navy, Army, or Royal Air Force. This role is both significant and varied, requiring a high level of confidentiality.

We have several 12 and 18 month fixed-term contracts based at our central Glasgow site. You'll be part of a close-knit team that offers constant support and guidance. These full-time roles require 37.5 hours per week, with flexible working hours available from Monday to Friday, 7am-7pm, including the option for a compressed working week. These are office based roles and you will be required in the office 5 days a week.

While experience in the financial sector is advantageous, it is not crucial. We are looking for someone who can effectively collaborate in a team-oriented office setting, follow established processes, handle complex data proficiently, and demonstrate attention to detail.

What you'll be doing:

• Re-assessing pension benefits that are due to members in accordance with policy
• Updating systems to make sure accurate records are held of members entitlements
• Communicating at all levels via phone calls and emails
• Working to set government processes and procedures
  
  

What you’ll bring:

• Numeracy skills and ability to process complex data
• Solid understanding of Microsoft Office (particularly Excel and Word)
• Articulate and able to develop good working relationships with colleagues and clients
• A flexible manner and approach
• Ability to set and achieve performance targets
  
  

It would be great if you had:

• Financial and/or Pension Sector experience
  
  

If you are interested in this role but not sure if your skills and experience are exactly what we’re looking for, please do apply, we’d love to hear from you!
