We work with a number of businesses, large and small, who want to provide their employees with valuable workplace benefits.
As well as running their group private pension schemes and other employee benefit schemes, we also provide one-to-one financial planning support to individuals in their workplace.
How we help
We understand that attracting and retaining talent can be a challenge. For those employers who genuinely want to differentiate themselves and support their employees with excellent benefits, we can help.
Our dedicated team of financial planners, paraplanners, and administrators will take care of all the admin required to run a pension scheme which will meet your legal obligations. But we go further than that.
We also provide regular drop-in sessions at your premises, giving your employees the opportunity to speak to a qualified and experienced financial planner if and when they need to.
In addition, we can provide group insurance policies such as life insurance, income protection, private medical cover, and defined contribution small self-administered (SASS) pension schemes.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Do I have to provide a workplace pension scheme?
Yes, auto-enrolment now means that every employer must make a pension available to their employees.
Why should I engage a financial planner?
There are plenty of pension providers who will provide a low-cost pension service, but they’re unlikely to deliver additional value to your employees.
Why should I offer employee benefits?
Employee benefits such as death in service show your employees that you care about them and their families.
Is it expensive to provide these types of employee benefits?
Not necessarily – especially if it helps you retain good people and save recruitment fees. We’d be happy to talk you through the most cost-effective ways to support your employees.
