Our vision:

Our vision is that CII and PFS professionals build a world which delivers ever greater financial resilience for individuals and societies more broadly.

• You thrive in managing multiple projects and deadlines, balancing quality control with efficient delivery, guided by clear priorities.
• You’re comfortable working with subject matter experts, and can guide them to produce clear, structured learning content.
• You bring experience in educational publishing or professional bodies, with a solid understanding of syllabus‑driven content and learner needs.
• You’re adaptable with editing tools, whether working in Word or content management systems like Hereto, and open to learning new platforms.
• You take initiative in improving processes and enjoy contributing to the development of engaging study texts and e‑learning materials.

Your benefits:

In addition to a market‑benchmarked base salary, here are some of the benefits you can expect from the CII as a valued colleague:

• 10% non‑contributory pension
