Who do I contact to increase my civil service pension?

Im just over the limit that takes me to 40% tax bracket. I read on Martin Lewis that increasing pension contributions will bring me back to the lower tax band.

How do I go about this? I work remotely and never actually see any managers. But maybe its not them i contact anyway?

If anyone works in the civil service and can advise me id really appreciate it, thank you.

You can buy an AVC - you will be in alpha now, but if you joined before 1/4/22 you will have been in another scheme first. Contact Capita (pension administrator), HR or check the CS Pension website

It’s definitely HR/payroll you need, not capita.
