Location - Dublin (Ireland) with an in-office requirement of 3 days per week
Closing date for applications is Monday 31 May 2026
LCP Ireland now has an exciting opening for a Defined Contribution Pension Consultant to join our growing specialist DC division. Whilst the role covers the wide spectrum of advice required by a DC scheme, as can be seen below, we are looking for someone with demonstrable experience of managing effective client relationships, good technical pensions knowledge and a broad understanding of wider employee benefits (such as group risk) and individual financial advice.
What's the role and what will you be doing?
We work collaboratively as a team to deliver our advice to clients. Your role as a consultant will involve an appropriate combination of the following responsibilities:
Managing client relationships - we are seeking an experienced professional who will be able to manage a portfolio of clients, helping them to navigate a fast changing pensions and regulatory environment and deliver high quality advice on a range of pension and benefit related topics in a proactive fashion
Managing and developing colleagues– oversee and help the teams’ analysts and graduates in relation to the preparation of client advice and mentoring their progression
Supporting / leading new business initiatives – play a role in winning new business including contributing to marketing events, getting involved in new business tenders/pitches and contributing to expanding the range of clients which we advise
Contributing to commercial management – ensure client billing is conducted in an accurate and timely fashion and projects are managed within budget and that we grow the range of services we offer to our clients
Contributing to market research – contributing to LCP’s independent research of master trust providers, ensuring that our clients are kept up to date with the latest developments
Who are we looking for?
We believe there are some qualities that our consultants need to have and others that are nice to have. We welcome diversity and a range of viewpoints and backgrounds as this improves the quality of the advice that we ultimately deliver to our clients and makes our team a more fun place to work.
Essential experience, skills and qualities:
A minimum of 2 years relevant professional experience, with demonstrable commercial awareness of the Irish pension and employee benefits sector
A completed or soon to be complete professional qualification, such as QFA, IIPM, FIA or CFA
The ability to multi-task and prioritise work in the face of competing demands and strict time constraints
An advanced level of skill in the use of Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint and an ability to learn and utilise in-house developed technology (e.g. LCP Horizon, proprietary AI technology)
The ability to work effectively in a team environment and participate positively and lead team discussions when appropriate
A commitment to attending the Dublin office and client meetings in person (office attendance expected at least 3 days a week)
A broad understanding of wider employee benefits (such as group risk) and individual financial advice would be advantageous.
Client relationship management experience, but If you haven’t had the opportunity to do this in your current role to date and are ready to do so, we can mentor and develop your skills in this area
Experience managing and mentoring less experienced colleagues, understanding that not all consultants will have had the opportunity to manage a team of analysts so we can support you as you grow into our working environment
What can you expect when working with us?
At LCP, we believe in the importance of investing in our staff to help them achieve their career potential and we will take your professional and personal development very seriously. We are proud to offer the successful candidate:
A competitive salary and benefits package based on experience and expected overall contribution
Study support for completion or addition of relevant professional qualification(s) if desired
Flexible working arrangements. We typically expect our consultants to attend the office 3 days a week on average to support junior staff development, idea sharing and to meet clients and are happy to discuss how we can support your individual circumstances
A friendly and inclusive office environment, with an active sports and social calendar
