Steve Webb was Minister of State for Pensions between 2010 and 2015. During that time he implemented major reforms to the state pension system, oversaw the successful introduction of automatic enrolment and played a key role in the new pension freedoms implemented in April 2015. He was awarded a knighthood in the New Year’s honours in 2017.

Following his time in Parliament he worked for Royal London for four years before joining LCP as a partner in 2020, where he has campaigned successfully to secure an estimated £1 billion in back payments for over 100,000 women who had been underpaid state pensions. More recently he has been working on proposals for reform of the DB funding system and on innovative ideas for decumulation in DC pensions.
