The Pensions Regulator (TPR) executive director of frontline regulation, Nicola Parish, will be leaving the organisation next month.
TPR’s current director of automatic enrolment, Mel Charles, will step into the role on an interim basis until a successor is recruited.
Parish, who has been at the regulator for 16 years, brought in the first supervision and enforcement teams at TPR.
She also implemented the first authorisation and supervision function for master trusts, as well as authorising or assessing new models of pension provision in the first authorised collective defined contribution pension scheme and the first defined benefit superfund.
TPR chief executive Nausicaa Delfas said: “On behalf of TPR, I would like to thank Nicola for all her contributions that have helped protect millions of savers’ pensions and wish her every success in the future.”
Parish said: “It has been a privilege to work at TPR to protect savers. I have loved every minute and everything I have done has been because of the professional, intelligent and driven people I have worked with.”
