There are five places available on the PLSA’s Policy Board, which guides and decides on the association’s public policy positions. Its remit stretches across all our policy work on pensions and lifetime savings. Our goal is to shape the policy agenda for all aspects of retirement income.
We are looking for the sector’s most senior and experienced thought leaders and experts. They will be guided by the chair of the PLSA Policy Board, John Chilman, and join participants from across the PLSA’s membership, in particular pension funds from the DB, DC, LGPS, and master trust sectors, and PLSA business members such as employee benefits consultants and law firms.
Find out more about the criteria for selection and how to apply.
The Policy Board normally meets four times a year, and we also expect to see its members supporting the PLSA at our major conferences. Some of its members will also be asked to chair policy committees that ordinarily meet three times per year.
By harnessing members’ experience and understanding in this way, we will be able to put forward well-argued policies on behalf of our members in pursuit of our mission to help everyone achieve a better income in retirement.
The PLSA Policy Board is an important and influential body and we hope a wide variety of PLSA members will want to take up the five places available. To ensure that the Policy Board is representative of our membership in this round we expect to appoint PLSA members from a range of schemes and pensions organisations, with a focus on: a) large DC master trusts b) LGPS funds c) contract-based DC and d) large DB or hybrid.
The deadline for applications is 7 February 2025. Please send applications, (CV and a short covering letter explaining the skills and experience you can bring to the Policy Board), to [email protected].
