We’re proud to be an Associate Sponsor for the 2023 Professional Pensions, Women in Pension Awards, as we drive innovative ideas and positive actions through our own workforce into the wider UK pensions industry.
The Women in Pensions Awards are about appreciating remarkable achievements of women in the sector who push to make our industry better. We are pleased to align the Aviva brand with a high-profile initiative in improving equality and diversity across the entire industry.
Being recognised as an inclusive insurer and creating a diverse organisation is our business-wide priority. A fundamental part of living Aviva’s purpose is ‘being with you today, for a better tomorrow’. It means being there for our people by serving our customers well and helping to contribute to fairer, more equitable communities.
Aviva has over 140 years’ experience of managing company pension schemes. We’re well-placed to realise that financial stress can have a substantial impact on the lives of pension scheme members and on their overall wellbeing.
We provide workplace pensions for around 26,000 schemes and have around 1.9 million active members with more than 3 million deferred members. Today, we help almost 5 million customers navigate the, oftentimes, uncertain reality of retirement planning.
People’s Partnership has a proud history of providing straightforward, accessible, and trusted products that have supported and helped people for over 80 years.
Founded in 1942 by unions and employer federations, People’s Partnership continues to do things for the greater good and is structured without shareholders, so its customers remain at the heart of everything it does.
Since the launch of auto-enrolment, the company has gone from strength to strength, and its flagship product, The People’s Pension, now looks after the more than £21bn worth of savings from more than 6m workers across the UK.
Aligned with its founding principles to help improve the lives of everyone, People’s Partnership firmly believes that a diverse workforce leads to increased innovation and success. By sponsoring two of the Women in Pensions Awards – Unsung Hero and Adviser of the Year – it aims to inspire future generations of female leaders in the industry and remain at the forefront of shaping a more inclusive and equitable pension landscape.
