We’re the Pension Protection Fund (PPF). We protect millions of people in the UK who belong to defined benefit pension schemes. When these schemes fail, we’re ready to help.

We do this by paying our members, by charging a levy and by investing sustainably. Our work has a real impact on people’s lives, so we strive to do it well, with integrity and their future in mind.

We’re equivalent in size to a top 5 UK pension scheme and have developed a highly sophisticated, best-in-class investment strategy. Our culture combines private sector standards with a public service ethos.

We're always keen to hear from talented and dedicated professionals who share our values. We have a range of positions here at the PPF including communications, sustainability, customer service, legal, actuarial, investment, technology, risk, policy and finance, to name a few. No matter what your skills and experience may be, we have positions that could be suitable for you.

If we are not currently advertising for a position that interests you, not to worry, we would welcome receiving your details so we can be in touch when a suitable opportunity arises. Additionally, we understand the importance of being a diverse and inclusive place of work at all levels; we believe this will improve our performance and support our strategic priorities.

If you believe that you have a contribution to make to all the hard work the PPF does to support its members, then we look forward to receiving your speculative application. 

We aim to contact you should an appropriate role become available. You can set alerts for when new roles are advertised on our website via the current vacancies page. If you subsequently see a suitable role after you have applied speculatively then please do not hesitate to apply directly for that role, too.

 

What we offer:

In return for your skills, experience and commitment we’ll give you a challenging role within a business where you’ll get the support you need to develop your career. You’ll also get an outstanding rewards package which includes a discretionary bonus scheme, private medical insurance, health cash plan, critical illness insurance, holiday trading, volunteering leave and a choice of generous defined benefit or defined contribution pension scheme.

We’ll also give you lots of opportunities for personal development and skills training.

Our Croydon office is just across the road from East Croydon station, which is around 15 minutes from Victoria or London Bridge, 10 minutes from Clapham Junction or half an hour from St Pancras.

 

We’re proud to be a Disability Confident Leader, the highest accreditation under the Disability Confident Scheme. If you have a disability and meet the essential criteria for this role you will be guaranteed an interview.

We embrace diverse talent welcoming people with different beliefs, backgrounds and ways of working. Whatever your background, and however you identify, you’ll be welcome here.

We’re happy to talk about flexible working

We’re a statutory public corporation led by our board and accountable to Parliament through the Secretary of State for the Department for Work and Pensions. It's our duty to protect people with an eligible defined benefit pension when an employer becomes insolvent.

We’re proud of the work we do. Without us, many people would face significant financial hardship. We’re also proud of our people, all of whom are committed to our mission and to serving over 230,000 members.
