An excellent rare new job vacancy has become available in the centre of Edinburgh. My client is a leading pensions consultancy and they are recruiting for a Senior Pensions Administrator to work at the forefront of the team.

The position has arisen due to new business wins. The successful applicant will be in a client-facing role, managing their own set of Defined Benefit (DB) schemes. Previous technical experience in defined benefit / final salary pensions is essential, along with some experience in client management within pensions.

Professional qualifications such as PMI are desirable but not essential. You will work with clients who have a mixture of defined benefit and defined contribution pension schemes. Technical knowledge of cradle to grave pensions administration, a thorough understanding of scheme rules, current legislation, and project management are required.

An excellent basic salary is on offer for the successful candidate, along with a fantastic benefits package. You will be joining a growing company with long-term opportunities in a successful, close-knit team in Edinburgh, but as part of a national setup.

If this opportunity interests you and you have DB or final salary pensions experience, please submit your CV for review for a confidential discussion about this and other roles available.

The speculative crypto boom years have cooled, some Web3 companies have downsized or disappeared, & yet demand for serious blockchain talent remains strong – especially where real-world utility, regulation & enterprise adoption meet. Tokenisation of real-world assets, regulated digital securities, central bank digital currency (CBDC) pilots, on-chain compliance tools & enterprise blockchain platforms are all moving from experiment to implementation. At the same time, hiring is more selective, funding is more cautious, & the bar for blockchain roles has risen. Whether you are a blockchain job seeker planning your next move, or a recruiter trying to build credible Web3 or enterprise blockchain teams, understanding the key blockchain hiring trends for 2026 will help you stay ahead. This guide mirrors the structure of the AI & biotech articles & is written with SEO in mind for both job seekers & recruiters searching for terms like “blockchain hiring trends 2026”, “Web3 recruitment UK”, “blockchain jobs in the UK” & “crypto careers 2026”.

Blockchain Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Must Know About Today’s Hiring Process

This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews & how to prepare—especially for smart‑contract engineers, protocol & infra engineers, security auditors, DevRel, product managers, quant/DeFi engineers, compliance specialists & Web3 growth roles. Who this is for: Solidity/Rust engineers, protocol & L2/L3 engineers, security auditors, custody/MPC specialists, blockchain data engineers, indexer/search engineers, DevOps/SRE for chains, DeFi quants, product & ecosystem leads, compliance/AML/KYC professionals targeting roles in the UK.

Why Blockchain Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Blockchain was once a niche technology, associated mostly with Bitcoin & cryptocurrency trading. In the UK today, it’s become a mainstream enabler of decentralised finance, supply chain traceability, identity management, health data sharing & even cultural products like NFTs. As blockchain matures, careers in the sector are expanding beyond developers & cryptographers. A blockchain project doesn’t just need people who can write smart contracts or design consensus mechanisms. It needs lawyers who understand regulation, ethicists who anticipate harm, psychologists who study user behaviour, linguists who simplify complex communication, and designers who build usable, trustworthy interfaces. In this article, we’ll explore why UK blockchain careers are becoming more multidisciplinary, how law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design shape the sector, and what job-seekers & employers must do to thrive.
