The role

The new pension system brings new rules and new products. With your legal knowledge, you contribute to the supervision of the pension provider. You examine what the role of the AFM is and how rules work in practice. For example, what are the minimum requirements for choice guidance, information provision, or complaint procedures at pension providers in order to protect participants?

What you'll do

As a pension supervision jurist, you work in the Pensions team. You provide independent legal advice to colleagues on supervisory and administrative law. You work together with another pension jurist on topics such as the interpretation of legislation and supervisory investigations. You also assist in enforcement processes and answer legal questions from colleagues, the board, and sometimes from market parties. Additionally, you are involved in judicial proceedings of your department. The focus of your work lies on the pension sector, but you also handle issues relating to insurance and AFM-wide (Awb) issues.

You create clear analyses and assist in careful decision-making. Interpretations of open norms excite you, and you are able to think and advise based on the spirit of the law. You think critically and find it interesting to investigate complex topics. You can explain rules in clear language, also to colleagues without a legal background. You work accurately, practically, and in a solution-oriented manner. You maintain an overview, work on multiple tasks simultaneously, and meet agreed deadlines.

  • Advising on laws and regulations: You analyze legal issues and advise independently on the interpretation of laws and regulations.

  • Qualification issues: you are hands-on involved in the legal aspects of various types of investigations and in any enforcement processes.

  • Submitting legislative requests: You inventory any bottlenecks or ambiguities in existing laws and regulations and assist in formulating possible legislative requests.

  • You are the legal point of contact for the department and also safeguard the legal (basic) knowledge of the supervisors.
