Richard Butcher
Client Director, ZEDRA Governance
Before joining ZEDRA from PTL where he was Managing Director for over ten years, Richard had his own small independent trustee and consultancy business.
Richard has been involved in pension scheme governance since 1985 and has worked with, or as a, pension scheme independent trustee since 1989.
Richard is a Fellow of the Pensions Management Institute, and a former elected member of the PMI Council. He is an accredited professional trustee. In 2017 he was appointed Chair of the Pensions and Lifetime Savings Association (PLSA). He is a regular contributor to the trade press.
Richard has responsibility for a diverse range of pension clients, both in Defined Benefit (DB) and Defined Contributions (DC). The best part of the job, he says, is building a good team with the other trustees, the scheme sponsor and other service providers.
