The Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes Authority (MPFA), set up in September 1998 under the Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes Ordinance (Cap. 485) (MPFSO), has been entrusted by the Government the task to design, develop and operate a digital platform, eMPF Platform, to standardize, streamline and automate the existing MPF scheme administration processes. Through the adoption of new technologies and innovative solution, this user-centric platform will bring about revolutionary change to the MPF ecosystem, thus creating further rooms for scheme administration fee reduction to all MPF scheme members.

In July 2020, the Legislative Council has approved the first phase of amendments to the MPFSO to empower the MPFA to set up a wholly owned subsidiary (the eMPF Platform Company) to take forward the eMPF Platform project. For background and details of the eMPF Platform project, please go to our website https://www.mpfa.org.hk/eng/information_centre/cp/index.jsp

We are now looking for personnel to join us for undertaking this multi-billion HK dollar transformation project leading the MPF ecosystem to a new era. If you are passionate to creating an impact to benefit the working population of Hong Kong and are keen and willing to work in a start-up style environment, we invite you to join the eMPF Platform Company. Successful candidates will be employed by the MPFA to work in the eMPF Platform Provisional Office (PO). Upon incorporation of the eMPF Platform Company, the employment will be transferred from the MPFA to the eMPF Platform Company.
