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.
We’re seeking an experienced Investment Risk Manager to join our 2nd Line Investment Risk team. This team is responsible for designing, developing, and implementing the independent risk oversight framework for the PPF’s investment portfolio, and for delivering high‑quality risk and portfolio analysis to support the wider Investment team.
In this role, you will take the lead on modelling, analysing, and reporting risks across our investment portfolio. You will monitor risk exposures, particularly within private markets, and engage regularly with both the Investment team and the Risk team to discuss findings, escalate concerns, and ensure appropriate risk management actions are taken. You will also provide independent assurance over processes owned by the Investment team, offering expert insight that strengthens decision‑making and enhances our overall risk oversight.
We’re looking for someone with experience in investment risk modelling and analysis, gained within an investment management environment or asset‑management firm, and exposure to both public and private market portfolios. You’ll be adept at building effective, trusting relationships with seasoned portfolio managers and confident communicating complex concepts and risks in a clear, transparent way. A deep understanding of investment risks across multiple asset classes and financial instrument, combined with an appreciation of portfolio construction, is essential.
