Why are we called Vidett?

Vidett is based on words from several languages – broadly meaning to see or find out.


It reflects the fact – whether we’re acting as independent trustee or governance professional – we need to see the situation before us and know what needs to be done to move forward. It also reflects activity and involvement with our clients and advisers – looking out for their needs and interests.

Why work with Vidett?

There are many different reasons why our clients have chosen to work with us, but why would you?

For advisers, our approach to working with you sets us apart from others. Read more here

Our clients are as diverse as our people. We know this diversity drives innovation through broader thinking and creativity to find new solutions and provide better support.

We also promote equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI) inside our business. Our dedicated EDI team raises understanding of and provides training on the value of our differences, and how they benefit our company.

Why work for Vidett?

Being the employer of choice is easy to say and hard to achieve, but we are utterly determined to be both the employer of choice and a great place to work.

We understand and value each other’s differences. Embedding equity, diversity & inclusion within all aspects of our business – from recruitment, training and development through to delivering service to clients – raises awareness of why valuing our differences is important and enables everyone to contribute effectively to our team. We want to help you fulfil your potential and you to help us fulfil ours.

We are nothing without our people and our team approach. Together, we are:

  • supporting each other
  • growing our people and our business
  • enjoying the journey together
  • valuing diversity in the broadest sense
  • we'll enable the right things to happen
  • leading change in the industry
  • delivering on our promises

Working with advisers

As professional trustees and governance experts, we work closely with a full range of advisers across the pensions industry. If you’re an adviser, it’s important to understand Vidett’s approach (which differs to some others in the market):

We’re a team of professional trustee and governance experts – transforming challenges into solutions and making the right things happen. Our solutions are adaptable (yet repeatable) and not a product.

We believe advice is for advisers. We work as ‘one team’ with them – seeking independent advice to ensure we all deliver the best outcomes for clients. We have an open culture – so together we can succeed and get things done.

We combine the best teams with market-leading technology – to support innovation, risk management and quality.
There are no lists of included or excluded advisers – we work with the whole market and look to work with advisers to fix any potential issues rather than going straight to tender.

Our shareholders’ support enables us to invest for the sustainable future we seek for our business, enabling our team to develop long-term relationships and deliver real value to our clients.

Working with you we’ll challenge, develop and grow by encouraging creativity, thinking differently and valuing everyone.

What do our clients think?
