Andrien Meyers is leaving JLT Employee Benefits after just one year at the firm, portfolio institutional has learned.
Meyers (pictured) will leave the UK’s fourth largest consultant at the end of the month to occupy a dual role as head of treasury and pensions at the Lambeth Pension Fund and a senior policy adviser at the Local Government Association (LGA).
In mid April Meyers will return to Lambeth Council where he spent 10 years as treasury and pensions manager before joining JLT in March last year as a senior investment consultant and Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) adviser.
He will split his time between managing the Lambeth Pension Fund’s £1.14bn in assets and acting as an adviser to minister for local government, Marcus Jones, on behalf of the LGA via its scheme advisory board.
He said the move would enable him to reduce his working hours and spend more time with his family, as well as allow him to take the skills learned at JLT back to the LGPS in an advisory capacity.
Meyers added: “Finding the right work life balance is very important to me and my family. The move to Lambeth and the LGA enables me to not only use existing and new skills, but more importantly help shape the LGPS (from a policy perspective) moving forward.”
The Lambeth Pension Fund is one of the 33 London boroughs part of the London Collective Investment Vehicle (CIV).
Meyers was influential in the establishment of the London CIV during his previous stint at Lambeth.
