Jeremy has recently joined the pension’s team at the Local Government Association after five years in the LGPS Policy Team at the Department of Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC). There he had been responsible for a range of policy development and stewardship issues, including exit pay reform and taking through a number of amending statutory instruments (on mergers and benefit changes). Before working in the pensions team, his civil service career was mainly focussed on local government finance and policy. He advised Ministers on challenges as diverse as social care funding, public sector property management and local audit reform. He was also a trade union member and activist (PCS) in that Department.
In his present role, Jeremy supports the LGA’s Head of Pensions and is Deputy Secretary to the Local Government Pension Scheme Advisory Board and its various sub-committees
