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 six 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 are seeking an experienced PR Manager to strengthen and protect the PPF’s reputation within the pensions industry. This pivotal role ensures our voice is heard and respected by managing media engagement and driving participation in key industry events. By shaping our external profile, you will help position the PPF as a trusted authority and thought leader in pensions.
As the PR Manager, you will lead the PPF’s press office and oversee our pension media relations, including proactive outreach, crisis communication planning, and the management of external PR partners. Beyond media, you will champion our presence at industry events—securing speaking opportunities, supporting executives, and building strong relationships with trade journalists and event organisers. Your work will amplify the PPF’s influence and credibility across the sector, ensuring we remain at the forefront of industry conversations.
We are looking for someone with experience working in a communications team within a corporate environment, with a strong background in press office management and media engagement. You will have proven experience in planning communications and coordinating activity across multiple channels along with organising speaking programmes for industry audiences and supporting senior leaders at external events.
You will bring excellent organisational skills and the ability to prioritise competing demands, alongside strong interpersonal skills for relationship management and influencing. A confidence in fostering and managing relationships with external stakeholders is key.
