Context

Administrative/Biographical history:

Alan Herbert retired in 1997 after a career in pensions in the brewing, food and oil industries spanning 37 years, including periods at Associated British Foods and BP. He sat on the panel of judges for the Pensions Management Awards in 2000 (having won its Pensions Manager of the Year Award in 1996) and the Professional Pensions Awards in 2007.

Herbert was also a member of the Trustee Code of Conduct Group, established in 2001 by Brian Holden of Co-operative Insurance Society Limited to develop a code of conduct for lay trustees, who were subject to increased requirements from the Pensions Act 1995. The Code of Conduct was launched in June 2002.

He established The Pensions Archive Trust in 2002, and continues to act as PAT's chairman. He was also a non-executive director of Dunnett Shaw & Partners Limited between 2000 and 2005, and was involved in Dunnett Shaw's Raising Standards in Pensions Administration initiative.
