ZEDRA, an award-winning provider of pension and incentive services, today announced the appointment of three new team members to the ZEDRA Inside Pensions team as it continues to expand its governance offering in response to growing demand from pension schemes for high-quality, practical governance support. 

Joyce Brown has joined as Trustee Executive, alongside Hamida Dadd and Aliza Bashir, who have joined as Assistant Trustee Executives. The appointments reflect the continued growth of ZEDRA Inside Pensions and demand from trustee boards for governance solutions that combine technical expertise with practical delivery and strong day-to-day support. 

Manjinder Basi, Managing Director of ZEDRA Inside Pensions, commented: “The pensions governance landscape continues to evolve, with trustee boards facing increasingly complex regulatory requirements, heightened expectations around oversight and accountability, and a growing number of strategic decisions around scheme funding, risk and endgame planning. 

“This is driving demand for governance support that goes beyond traditional secretariat services and helps boards maintain control, make effective decisions and deliver against their objectives. We are continuing to invest in the depth and breadth of our team so that we can meet this demand and provide the expertise, continuity and practical support our clients need.” 

Basi continued: “We are focused on providing governance solutions that make a tangible difference to how trustee boards operate and help them respond confidently to change. Joyce, Hamida and Aliza are valuable additions to the team, and we are pleased to welcome them to ZEDRA Inside Pensions as we continue to grow.”
