Position Overview & Specifications
We’re the Pension Protection Fund. 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 have a brand-new opportunity for a Junior Quantitative Analyst to join our Actuarial Risk & Modelling team.
This position will primarily support the running of the Economic Scenario Model (ESM) and the development and operation of the Long-Term Risk Model (LTRM). These are both complex stochastic models, which are used to determine the likelihood of the PPF achieving its funding objective and hence its mission of paying the right people the right amount at the right time.
The role will typically involve setting up and running these models and checking inputs and outputs, analysing data and drawing conclusions, and supporting senior members of the team to produce papers and prepare responses to committees and other teams.
Our ideal applicant will be a graduate from within a Mathematical or related numerate subject, who has sound numerical and analytical skills, and a willingness to dig into the detail of complex models. They will need to demonstrate excellent verbal and written communication skills including the ability to present complex information to a technical and non-technical audience.
