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, charging a levy, and 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 looking for a Credit Risk Manager to join our 2nd Line of Defence function, responsible for designing, developing, and implementing an independent credit risk framework.

Our ideal applicant will have extensive experience in Credit Risk Management, at a large financial institution or rating agency, with a focus on Corporate Credit risk and/or Structured Finance. They will be able to demonstrate experience in drafting Credit Risk reports for presentation at Rating Committees. Interpersonal skills are essential, including effective relationship management, a successful business partnering approach, and strong communication skills, with the ability to interpret complex information to a varied audience.
