Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

This includes retirement illustrations and set ups, as well as contacting members and answering enquiries and ensuring they receive their monthly pensions through payroll runs. However, each day varies and is very dynamic and requires a positive attitude and the ability to adapt.
