Northern LGPS launches recruitment for its first senior leadership team as it develops into a standalone pooled investment organisation.

Making up this team will be a chair, chief executive, chief investment officer and chief risk officer, with the pool also recruiting for non-executive directors.  

Paul Battye, chief executive and lead partner on the Northern LGPS project, said: “As the organisation transitions to a standalone entity, appointing a high-quality senior leadership team is essential to establishing the right governance, culture and operating model for the long term.  

“These roles offer a rare opportunity to help shape one of the UK’s largest public sector investment organisations at the point of its formation, working closely with partner funds to deliver strong outcomes for members over decades.”
