Fitzwilliam is a fantastic place to work and over 200 academic and non-academic staff members live and work around the College site. Fitz is a welcoming, supportive community, situated 10 mins walk from the historic Centre, and easily accessible by public and private transport.

Fitzwilliam is a modern, open-minded, inclusive academic community with a unique history. It is one of 31 colleges in the University of Cambridge. The College’s identity is built upon our founding ethos to offer opportunity to those left outside of the traditional structures of the Collegiate Cambridge system. Access to education is in our DNA. We remain passionately proud and committed to this founding purpose. Coupled with this is the College’s commitment to providing an environment for academic excellence to flourish so that our wider impact is felt in the life-changing higher education and ground-breaking research that happens at ‘Fitz’.

Fitzwilliam has around 1,000 members including 485 Undergraduates, 340 Postgraduates (full time), 121 Postgraduate (part time), 63 Fellows, 57 Bye-Fellows and 105 staff members. The College has a strong representation across all of the major academic disciplines and a good balance between arts and sciences and occupies a seven-acre site between Huntingdon Road and Storey’s Way. The site comprises new buildings built between the 1960s and 2000s, incorporating the regency house ‘The Grove’ and extensive landscaped gardens. The College site is within 10 minutes cycle ride of all the major faculties and departments.
