If you are 18 years of age or over, subject to and in accordance with the rules and terms, as amended from time-to-time, you are entitled to join the recognised University occupational pension scheme, Universities Superannuation Scheme (USS), from your commencement of employment. Full details of the USS Pension Scheme are available at: www.uss.co.uk.
You will automatically be deemed a member of the USS scheme from your commencement date. If you do not wish to become a member, you will have the option to opt out.
If within the last 12 months, prior to taking up your post at the University, you were a member of the NHS Superannuation Scheme, then it may be possible for you to maintain your membership of that Scheme during this appointment.
Further information is available on the Pensions web pages.
