The Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) has launched the public appointments process to recruit a permanent Chair of the Greater Cambridge Development Corporation.
This is an exciting opportunity to help shape the future of Greater Cambridge at a pivotal moment for the region. The Chair will provide strategic leadership to the Corporation as it works with partners across government, local authorities, business and communities to support sustainable growth and deliver long-term benefits for the area.
The appointment is being made through the Government's standard public appointments process for Chairs of public bodies. Applications are now open and will close on 19 November 2026.
In the meantime, the Corporation will continue to be led by its existing Board and Chair arrangements while the appointment process is completed.
A separate public appointments process to recruit permanent Non-Executive Directors for the Corporation is expected to begin early next year.
Further information about the role, including details of how to apply, is available via the Government's public appointments website:
