About L&G

We take pride in being there for our customers. We help them deal with whatever life has in store and support them in achieving financial security; and that’s thanks to the talented and dedicated people who work with us. For us, ‘social responsibility’ is not just a buzzword. It defines us and runs through everything we do for our customers and as an employer. And working with us, you’ll get a competitive reward package and have the flexibility and autonomy to deliver your personal, business and career goals.

About the business area

With around one million customers, our retail business helps turn customers’ pension savings into lifelong retirement income and our corporate business looks after our defined benefit pension schemes ensuring they are effectively managed to protect against risk and achieve their maximum potential.

High quality, current, and resilient IT systems, tools and capabilities are critical in enabling the LGR business to continue to grow in the Retirement market. The business expectation of IT is increasing, and traditional low-risk models of service provision no longer meet the demands of a business with ambitions to grow its digital footprint, engage its customers online and drive valuable analytics science from the data it manages.

LGR IT is responsible for the production processes for data and risk analytics, the business change associated with those systems and the delivery of good quality management information to other teams within LGR as well as other business units in the L&G group.
