SHILLING Communication launches Westland Pension Scheme website
SHILLING Communication, the leading independent firm of pensions and benefits communication specialists, today announced its appointment by the £630m Westland Pension Scheme* to launch their new pensions website. The DB scheme, which has over 5,000 members (actives/pensioners/deferreds), previously had no online presence.
Commenting, Sam Waterhouse, Consultant at SHILLING Communication said, ‘The pensions manager and the trustees wanted an easy to use site that could be the primary reference point for all the schemes pension material. As part of this, they also wanted a design that reflected both what the company does and its people, something clean and eye catching. We are very pleased with how the site looks, it is engaging and visual but also fit for purpose – easy to navigate, informative and useful.’
Waterhouse added; ‘We are seeing more and more projects such as this come through the doors and it is a clear reflection of schemes realising that , in order to communicate effectively with ALL their members, they need to embrace a mixture of communication techniques – of which online plays an increasingly vital role.’
Kate Webber, Pension Manager at AgustaWestland commented; ‘I enjoy working with SHILLING and really value their positive and professional approach. I have previous experience of their GCOM website platform and knew it was the right platform for us. It enables us to provide an online resource to our members and trustees which is flexible, easy to maintain and at relatively low cost. Our early indications show that the members are very happy with the website we have developed.’
The website offers various facilities including access to ’pensionline’ (the Scheme administrator Aon’s interactive platform) where members can look at their personal pension details and an online news alert so that the pensions team and trustees can keep members more regularly up to date with scheme news and information. In addition, the Trustees have a password protected library facility enabling trustees access to key documents.
