Meet Vic, Partner

I was recently promoted to partner after joining LCP as a graduate eight and a half years ago. I had previously completed a summer internship in our Winchester office in my second year at university, and it had helped me decide that being an actuary was the career I wanted to pursue. I really enjoy being able to live in Winchester and travel to London regularly.

When I first joined LCP I never expected to become a partner so quickly, but the opportunities I have been given and the range of work and clients I have advised on meant that I was able to build up experience and confidence quickly.

The part of my job that I most enjoy is meeting with clients to discuss their pension challenges and help explain what actions they can take to manage their pensions risks. I recently attended my first trustee meeting as the LCP partner giving advice, which was a great feeling. I really enjoy the work-social balance at LCP. Moving to Winchester when I started at LCP, I didn’t know the area well but the number of social events ran by work meant that I quickly built up a network of friends. I have also been part of the social committee organising office-wide events, my favourite was the company party we planned at London Zoo.

My advice to future graduates... research the different areas (pensions, investment, insurance) to see what area fits your interests best. Or if you’re not sure, contact one of us!
