Tim Smith
I work as a senior pensions professional support lawyer at leading City law firm, Herbert Smith Freehills, and have over a decade's experience working on pensions matters as part of the market leading pensions teams at two major City law firms.
I work as part of a team advising the trustees and sponsors of the UK's largest defined benefit and defined contribution occupational pension schemes, pension providers, buy-out insurers and asset managers, providing technical insight on a wide range of pensions-related matters, including pensions regulation, scheme funding issues and GMP equalisation. I also work with Government departments, regulators and industry bodies to develop and shape pensions policy and regulation.
I am a member of the Association of Pension Lawyers. I also sit on the PLSA’s Legal Advisory Group and the GMP Equalisation Working Group’s methodology sub-committee.
