Job Description

My client is a leading pensions firm and they are currently recruiting for a number of defined benefit pension administrators across all levels (including senior and principal) working hybrid from Edinburgh or Glasgow to manage a portfolio of DB schemes and work at the forefront of the team, with the scope to develop within other teams to trustee and consulting.

The roles are due to increased business and the successful applicant will be key within the team, also managing your own set of DB/DC schemes. Previous technical defined benefit/ final salary pensions/DC experience is essential, in addition some experience in client management within pensions. Professional qualifications such as progress towards PMI are desirable, but not essential.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

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.
