The Company

Local government—but not as you know it!
We’re the Cambridgeshire & Peterborough Combined Authority (CPCA), a bold and forward-thinking organisation created in 2017 through a landmark devolution deal with Government. That deal handed us the power and the funding to make decisions locally, for the people who live and work here.

We’re a partnership of seven councils working together with businesses, educators, health services, emergency responders and community groups to drive growth and improve lives across our region. Led by a directly elected Mayor and a Board of local leaders, we’re united by a clear mission - to get Cambridgeshire and Peterborough moving.

At the Combined Authority, we do things the CIVIL way—Collaboration, Integrity, Vision, Innovation, Leadership. We’re passionate about our people and proud of our culture. If you’re looking for a career where you can make a real impact, grow your skills, and be part of something meaningful, you’ve come to the right place.
