Client feedback

“Many organisations and people provide the services that clients need. In my opinion, the differentiator is in the way those services are provided and to that extent, Kathy embodies the qualities that I have come to value from PSITL. Kathy is organised but not fussy; diligent but not dogmatic; persistent without being pushy and compliant in a pragmatic way. Whilst she takes ownership and drives issues forward, Kathy is a team player who uses her and her colleagues experience to provide services to her trustee client whilst working closely with those like me representing the sponsoring employer. She works collaboratively with advisers but constructively challenges the scope of services, fees and service standards whenever necessary and makes sure that member needs are always taken into account. I enjoy working with her and trust that she will deliver what is required by the trustee and the members they represent in a manner satisfactory to the sponsoring employer. ”

Stuart Barker,

Internal Pensions Consultant, RSPCA

“The trustee training was a very well-paced overview which gave opportunity to explore ideas and question more deeply at key points.”

Paul Coley,

“We have realised the benefit of having and independent trustee. Claire sees what general practice is like, so is able to guide us.”

Anthony Bowen,

“PSGS have provided sound and professional advice through a number of difficult pension decisions – would thoroughly recommend.”

George Batho ,

“We always receive an extremely high level of professionalism from PSGS, allowing us to make informed and appropriate decisions. Their advice is always timely and well received, allowing us to focus on what are the important key issues. They are always accessible and I would not hesitate to recommend their services!”

A-level results day – what now?

I remember the feeling on the morning of A-level results day. A sense of relief but also nervous about my future. What am I supposed to do now? Am I meant to be going to university? Should I go travelling?

I never really had a plan, I just always knew university was never really an option for me. There was just too much to choose from, like when you go to a restaurant and the menu is 6 pages too long. What if my dinner came and I’d ordered the wrong thing? I can’t really return a £50k student loan back to the kitchen.

I always felt teachers favoured those with their chosen university and high UCAS score rather than encouraging others to the alternative options that suit them better. At the end of the day, schools and colleges compete for a high acceptance rate and I really felt that.

If, like I did, you feel like you don’t know what to do, remember university isn’t the only route. There are lots of brilliant companies out there with training schemes looking for school/college leavers, us included!

We have some great opportunities for you:

If you’re interested in jumping straight into work, earning some money and starting a progressive career, take a look and apply here.

Or, if you feel like you need a break to see what feels right, we’ll still be here when you’re ready!
