Mitchell Consulting Actuaries Limited is the only independent firm of actuaries, pension consultants and pensions administrators based in Manchester. We were established in 1998 to provide practical and affordable actuarial, pensions consultancy and pensions administration services to UK pension schemes. We advise around 100 UK pension schemes, as well as providing support to other professionals. Our actuaries and consultants have a wealth of experience, often built up with the major firms; however, a significant difference in our approach is that we are flexible when it comes to our advice, communication and pricing – ‘big firm’ thinking without the ‘big firm’ prices or constraints. We specialise in group occupational pension schemes, mainly final salary, but we also advise on and administer money purchase schemes including insured arrangements. We have a national reputation in the areas of complex cases, distressed or financially challenged businesses, and mergers and acquisitions including private equity transactions. We also offer independent trusteeship through our sister company, 2020 Trustees, which is a leading independent corporate trustee.
