Our pension administration support helps businesses organise workplace pension processes, maintain accurate records and coordinate employee communications. We assist with assessing worker eligibility, arranging enrolment and checking contribution information against payroll records, so every eligible employee is placed into the correct scheme at the right time.

We manage administrative steps for opt-outs, refunds and re-enrolment, following your scheme procedures and agreed responsibilities at every stage. We maintain organised contribution records, employee details and supporting correspondence, ensuring information is easy to locate and accurate whenever it is needed. We also review outstanding actions and resolve discrepancies with your team, keeping communication clear and timely.

Regular checks help identify missing information, payment issues and changes requiring attention, allowing problems to be addressed before they affect employees or your pension provider. Whether staff join, leave, change hours or alter their contribution choices, we update records carefully and keep every action aligned with payroll data.

Through clear reporting and coordinated workflows, we help reduce administrative pressure on your internal teams, freeing them to focus on core business activities.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Let’s Discuss Your Requirements

Have a question about our services? Speak with our team to discuss your engagement, deadlines and the support you need.

What Is Pension Administration?

Pension administration is the end-to-end management of a workplace pension. It covers checking which employees are eligible, enrolling them into the right scheme, setting up and processing employer and employee contributions, maintaining accurate records and keeping the scheme compliant with employer duties. It also includes handling opt-outs, refunds, ongoing assessments and re-enrolment. We work alongside your payroll team and pension provider so every task is completed on schedule and your employees are supported throughout.

Can you Manage Defined Contribution Schemes?

Yes. We manage defined contribution schemes, along with corporate pension schemes and employer-sponsored programmes. This includes confirming contribution rates, checking contributions against payroll each period, preparing information for the pension provider and keeping a clear record of every payment. Whether you run a single scheme or several arrangements for different groups of employees, we follow your scheme rules and agreed responsibilities at every stage.

Do you Integrate Pensions with Payroll?

Yes. We synchronise pension deductions with your payroll so contributions and deductions stay accurate and up to date every pay period. When employees join, leave, change hours or alter their contribution choices, we update the records and keep them aligned with payroll data. Regular checks help us spot missing information or payment issues early, before they affect your employees or your pension provider.

Can Employees Access their Pension Statements?

Yes. Employees can access their pension information, including digital contribution statements and annual summaries. Clear, easy-to-find statements help staff understand what is being paid into their pension and build confidence in their retirement planning. Our team is also available to help with employee queries, so your HR and payroll staff are not left handling every question.

Can Services be Customised?

Yes. We tailor our support around your scheme, internal policies, reporting preferences and existing systems. You can choose help with specific tasks, such as enrolment or contribution checks, or ongoing end-to-end administration. We agree responsibilities with your team at the start, so the service fits into the way you already work rather than replacing it.

Who Is Responsible for Assessing Whether an Employee Is Eligible for Enrolment?

Legally, the employer is responsible for assessing workers and making sure eligible employees are enrolled into a qualifying workplace pension. We take on this work for you. We check each worker’s age and earnings, confirm who must be enrolled, and record the outcome for every pay period. Where an employee is not eligible to be enrolled automatically, we also help with their right to opt in or join the scheme. This keeps you compliant while your internal team focuses on its core work.

How do you Make Sure Contributions are Correct?

We check contribution figures against your payroll records in every pay period. We validate employer and employee contribution rates, compare deductions with the amounts due, and flag any differences for review with your team. Whenever staff join, leave, change hours or alter their contribution choices, we update the records straight away. Every check and correction is logged in an audit trail, so you can see what was reviewed and approved. This helps prevent costly errors for both your business and your employees.

Will we be Reminded of Important Pension Deadlines?

Yes. Our automated notifications alert you to key dates such as enrolment deadlines, contribution payments and re-enrolment milestones. Our team also tracks these dates on your behalf and follows up on any outstanding actions, so nothing is missed. Regular reports show what has been completed and what is still pending, making responsibilities clear for everyone involved.

How Secure Is Our Employees Pension Data?

Employee pension data is held in a cloud-based system with encrypted, centralised document storage, so records are protected and easy to locate when needed. Access is controlled, and a complete audit trail records changes, actions and approvals. We handle personal and financial information carefully and in line with UK data protection requirements, giving you and your employees confidence that sensitive information is kept safe.
