Employer Liaison Officer

Matt Allen, the Cornwall Pension Fund Employer Liaison Officer, helps to build and maintain good working relationships with the pension scheme’s participating employers including providing training, advice, guidance and support if requested. The Employer Liaison Officer is the first point of contact for employers and where necessary, liaises with others within the team to resolve any queries.

Matt can also attend your locality to deliver briefing sessions for your employees on the main benefits of Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) and answer any general questions they might have regarding the scheme and Fund. These sessions last approximately 1.5hrs and are suitable for those wishing to join or who are already members. There is no charge associated with these briefing sessions.

If you would like to book an employee briefing session/s, please contact Matt Allen to arrange a suitable time and date by emailing pensions@cornwall.gov.uk
