Independent financial services consultancy Quantum Advisory has promoted Darren Wateridge to principal consultant in London.
Wateridge joined the company in 2013 as a senior consultant and actuary with more than 25 years experience in the pensions industry. He is currently scheme actuary to a number of pension clients. He advises trustees and companies on issues affecting pension schemes including funding, company accounting, benefit change exercises and de-risking strategies.
Rhidian Williams, partner at Quantum Advisory, said: “Our people are at the centre of our success as a business, and we invest in the highest calibre of staff. Their continued support and development is part of our ethos so promoting talent from within is key. Throughout his career at Quantum Darren’s talent, commitment and client management expertise has been apparent. We are confident he will continue to excel in his new position and play a pivotal role in the continued growth of the company.”
Wateridge: “The market landscape is the most dynamic and competitive it has ever been, and we welcome that challenge. We have some really exciting plans and initiatives coming up this year to further support our clients.”
This is the latest in a string of promotions at the firm, with Simon Hubbard recently promoted to principal consultant in Cardiff.
