Thomson Dickson Consulting is an independent partnership of actuaries and pensions consultants offering a full range of services to employers and trustees of occupational pension schemes.

Our focus is on the provision of services to small and medium sized pension schemes.

We provide all services from one location, often under a fixed fee arrangement, and deliver relevant and informative advice. This combination results in TDC being regarded as one of the leading pensions consultancies in the SME market.
