Drive the delivery of complex DB pension transactions.
A new opportunity has arisen within our client's team, for an experienced DB Pension Transactions Project Manager to play a central role in coordinating a portfolio of significant defined benefit pension transactions.
Working across multiple transactions simultaneously, you’ll be responsible for:
- Keeping each deal on track from a programme perspective
- Coordinating key stakeholders
- Managing risks and issues
- Monitoring critical deadlines
- Ensuring senior stakeholders have clear, accurate visibility of progress
This is a highly collaborative role, working closely with transaction brokers, trustees, actuaries, lawyers, administrators, and other specialist advisers. You’ll bring structure and pace to a complex transaction environment, ensuring that different workstreams remain aligned and potential issues are identified and escalated early.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You’ll also play an important role in strengthening the way future transactions are delivered, developing templates, trackers, reporting processes, and governance frameworks that make each successive transaction more efficient and lower risk.
We're looking for someone with:
- Strong Defined Benefit knowledge
- Previous exposure to pensions transactions
- Experience in endgame environments and direct involvement in producing papers for trustee boards, reporting groups, or pricing committees would also be advantageous
Why this role?
- This is an opportunity to become a key part of a growing transaction function and gain exposure to multiple high-profile DB transactions, rather than being focused on a single deal.
- You’ll have the opportunity to work at the heart of the transaction process, partnering with some of the key advisers and stakeholders across the UK pensions market, while helping to build the frameworks and processes that will support future growth.
- For someone who enjoys involvement in complex projects, stakeholder management, and getting deals over the line, this is a role where strong project management and pensions expertise can have a direct and visible impact.
