Kathryn joined Hymans Robertson LLP as a Maths and Statistics graduate from Glasgow University in 2004, where she then qualified as a Fellow of the Faculty of Actuaries.  She started her career advising trustees on funding Defined Benefit contribution schemes, but in 2014 she switched her focus to improving the retirement outcomes of Defined Contribution savers through advising a range of clients and engaging directly with members.
