ELEMENTS / SKILLS / CREDENTIALS / NOTES

LLB/JD is required; generally this has not been an issue in sourcing as it has been a must have (i.e., we didnt see resumes from non-qualified candidates)
The ideal candidate has 1-2 years related work experience (i.e., compliance / legal) in a Defined Benefit (DB) pension plan environment; the DB plan experience has been the biggest obstacle
It is also critical that person have very good communication and interpersonal skills as they will work with all Investments team members as well as internal and external counsel, investment managers and service providers
