The Pensions Ombudsman was established in 1991 by Act of Parliament. The Ombudsman's role is to investigate and decide pension complaints between members of pension schemes.
Samples of work are unavailable due to the sensitive nature of the work and in compliance with the Data Protection Act. |
My original tasks was to continue an existing role and so facilitate maternity leave cover. However, this role altered rapidly to accommodate the impact of a planned IT refresh project which had overrun. My post graduate IT expertise and project management experience enable me to assist and advise the project management team during this transitional period. I therefore contributed beyond my initial job description to provide on site running repairs and upgrades to the ageing IT kit. I additionally 'propped up' databases where their support contract had expired. By extending their useful life, I was able to extract and validate data in preparation for migration to the new IT system.
While in the this role I have gained a certificate in Protecting Information, which can be seen here
I have also passed the Home Office security search, which can be seen here.
My tasks are summarised here:
My contract is temporary due to maternity leave cover. This is expected to end very shortly
