LPPA partners with Hackney Pension Fund

One of the UK’s leading public sector pension administrators, LPPA, has been awarded the contract to provide pension administration services to the Hackney Pension Fund (HPF).

From October 2025, the London Borough of Hackney Pension Fund, which is part of the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS), will become the 19th pension administration client to partner with LPPA. This will be LPPA’s 11th LGPS client.

LPPA, with its head office based in Preston, Lancashire, started as the administration arm of Local Pensions Partnership (LPP) in 2016 as a collaboration between the Lancashire County Pension Fund (LCPF) and the London Pensions Fund Authority (LPFA). The administrator has since grown to provide administration services to more than 2,100 employers and 700,000 members of LGPS, Police and Firefighter pension schemes.

A partnership that puts members first
In the summer of 2024, HPF took the decision to review its third-party pension administration. Along with other pension administrators, LPPA was asked to submit a proposal detailing our services, our values and LPPA’s plans for further enhancing the member experience. HPF evaluated and scored all the proposals they received and as a result, LPPA was successfully awarded the pension administration shared service contract.

John Crowhurst, Operations & Commercial Director at LPPA, said: “We are absolutely delighted that Hackney Pension Fund has chosen LPPA to provide its pension administration service. We share the same desire to provide a high-quality service and an excellent member experience, which will make for a great partnership going forward.

“Three years ago, LPPA completed a significant transformation project to move to a new pension administration platform. Hackney Pension Fund joins us at an exciting time as the platform enables us to enhance the service to their employers and members even further.

“We are very much looking forward to providing outstanding pension administration to Hackney and to its members for many years.”

Cllr Kam Adams, Chair of Hackney Pension Fund Committee, said: “We are delighted to have chosen LPPA and to be working with them to provide the Hackney Pension Fund with its pension administration services with effect from October 2025.

“We are anticipating a much-improved employer and scheme member experience as a result of this change, making use of a modern platform enabling online interaction with our administrators.”
