Luke Gorman 

Luke joined Southdown in 2022 as a Pension Analyst and has recently been appointed as a PODE.


During the past 3 ½ year he has developed the knowledge and skills required of a Pensions on Divorce Expert meeting at least the minimum requirements of PAG2 Appendix C

 

He is a student member of the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries and is presently studying for a Level 7 actuarial qualification.

 



Luke graduated from Manchester Metropolitan University with a degree in Mechanical Engineering in 2019, joining us with strong analytical and numerical skills.


With the support and mentoring from our existing PODEs he has rapidly gained and demonstrated sufficient knowledge to be appointed as a PODE.


Since joining, he has been involved in resolving pension issues on divorce on over 700 cases. These have included a range of complex cases and schemes including all public sector schemes as well as  uniformed schemes. He has shadowed the work of our existing PODEs and has been instrumental in crafting a significant number of provisional report outcomes for PODE approval and sign off as well as aiding the progress and enhancement of our internal case assessment process.

 

Outside of work, Luke plays Padel on a regular basis and also enjoys attending his local gym to keep fit.
