Churchill College - Head of Buildings and Capital Projects

485 Undergraduate students

About Churchill College is one of the thirty-one Colleges of the University of Cambridge. It was founded in 1960 as a national and Commonwealth memorial to Sir Winston Churchill. Situated just outside the city centre on a superb circa 50-acre site, it is an academic community of around 500 undergraduates, 400 postgraduates, 150 Fellows, 100 By-Fellows and 160 non-academic staff. This community extends to more than 10,000 alumni worldwide. The College was created to confront, through technology, the challenges facing Britain and the world. Today this vision is more relevant than ever. In the arts and humanities, as well as in science and technology, our students will become the researchers and policy-makers of the future, urgently responding – dynamically, logically, and creatively – to great international questions such as social justice, climate change, and global health. In common with all Cambridge colleges, Churchill’s key mission and purpose is academic. Its fulfilment of this is heavily facilitated by its commercial operations. The College runs a separate highly successful conference and hospitality business in the main College buildings, which includes day meetings during University term and many residential conferences at other times. The College’s commercial income exceeds £2 million per annum. Our attitude is forward-looking, outward-reaching, and can-do. Our focus is on excellence and ensuring that all our students feel welcomed and supported as they aspire to it.
