Jason Davenport, CIPP chair, presenting the award to Tim
The honorary fellowship is granted to those who have spent their careers furthering the industry. They have made significant contributions to both the profession as a whole and the CIPP during the course of their career.
This year, we award honorary fellowship to two individuals.
Awarded to: Brendan Mulkern FCIPP
Brendan has been actively involved in the development of the CIPP’s pensions qualifications offering. He has been a breath of fresh air to the pensions aspect of the CIPP, offering industry insight and challenging a traditional qualification. Having worked within the pensions industry in the public sector for many years, he continually works towards raising the profile of pensions. From initial work with Lancashire County Council in the late 1980s, Brendan’s career flourished through leadership roles at Powys Council and Lancashire as the pensions manager. He became chief policy and external affairs officer at the Universities Superannuation Scheme, the largest funded scheme in the UK. Brendan now works as a consultant and adviser, taking on some of the most complex pensions issues for funds and employers. He has been very loyal to the CIPP from qualifying under the Institute’s predecessor body, APSA, to more recently leading a task group established to advise on the future of the Institute’s pension qualifications.
Awarded to: Tim Kelsey FCIPP
Tim is an expert in the payroll world, and particularly experienced in global payroll. His career started at the Medical Research Council where he worked as a payroll manager for eighteen years.
After working as payroll manager for Buckinghamshire County Council controlling a payroll of 15,000 staff, he set up his own business offering tutoring, lecturing, writing, mentoring and consultancy services to the payroll profession. This person regularly writes and speaks on International payroll issues and has lectured from Aberdeen to Dubai. An active member of the CIPP and passionate about the need for payroll people to have access to the best possible training and development opportunities, Tim frequently delivers training on behalf of the CIPP and continually demonstrates professionalism and support to those new to the industry, and global payroll, in developing skills for the future.
