What you can expect from us
We are the largest truly local building society. We currently employ over 200 people within our 23 branch offices in and around the Cambridge area and our Head Office Administration Centre in Cambridge.
We offer our customers a traditional, branch based building society service. Our success is built upon our aim to provide consistently high levels of customer service - at all times.
To achieve this we are fully committed to the development of our staff. As an Investor in People organisation, we believe that investing in every member of staff is essential to our continued success.
Our recent Investors In People review was completed in December 2007, and we were delighted to hear that "The Cambridge continues to be exceptionally supportive towards both its staff and its customers and embraces a policy of continuous improvement. In addition, the Society's commitment to community activities and support remains very strong."
Our assessor also advised us that " Virtually all of the people with whom the assessor met during this review told her they believed the Cambridge is both a very effective communicator and exemplar employer.
Community Building
Our local network of branches form a real part of the communities we serve. Mutuality underpins all our dealings. All our staff are focused on putting the true needs of members first, organising work to give members priority, and supporting local community interests and activities.
People Building
Our success is built by the people we employ. The more we develop them, the stronger we shall be. We care genuinely about our staff, their wellbeing and their progress, discussing their aspirations, listening to their ideas, recognising their contribution and rewarding their efforts.
Family Building
Our business is all about helping families to build their nest egg, home and family life. The same goes for our staff. Our open, flexible approach enables people to combine work with family. We offer a range of contracts including full time, job share, part time and weekend employment.
Team Building
A good team is stronger than the sum of its individual members. We work hard to create an environment of co-operation, consultation, concurrence and conviviality not just in the branch or office but also in our busy social calendar.
Confidence Building
Confident people contribute the most. We are positive towards change, seek to improve continuously in all aspects of our work, keep people informed of developments and equip them with the knowledge and tools they need to achieve high standards.
Career Building
We have always been strongly committed to professional and personal development through our robust performance management process. All staff are actively encouraged to develop themselves, supported and mentored by line managers.
