Speculative Application
The vacancy
At the Pension Protection Fund (PPF), we provide security in retirement for our members and millions of people throughout the UK who belong to defined benefit (DB) pension schemes. Through the PPF and Financial Assistance Scheme (FAS), we compensate members for their pensions after the employer funding their pension becomes insolvent. In total, we look after over 400,000 members across the PPF and FAS. With over £30 billion in assets under management, our investments support long-term economic growth across the UK.
Our award-winning team of around 450 professionals has earned the IPE UK Pension Fund of the Year title three times in seven years. We work closely with government and industry partners to improve outcomes for scheme members, employers, and the broader pension system—playing a vital role in strengthening retirement security nationwide.
At the PPF, we’re driven by a powerful purpose: protecting the futures of millions of people. To achieve that, we rely on talented individuals from a wide range of professional backgrounds; finance, legal, communications, customer service, actuarial, investment, technology, risk, policy, pensions, and many more.
If you're curious, and passionate about making a meaningful impact, there could be a place here for you.
We recruit throughout the year, and while you may not always see the right role advertised at the moment you’re looking, we’re always interested in hearing from people who share our values and want to contribute to our mission. If that sounds like you, we encourage you to submit a speculative application.
When opportunities arise that match your skills and experience, we’ll look to be in touch. In the meantime, you can also sign up for job alerts, so you never miss new vacancies, and if you later spot a role that inspires you, please do apply directly.
If you’re ready to be part of an organisation that’s making a real difference, we look forward to hearing from you.
