St John's College

About Us

An Inspiring Place In Which To Work.

St. John’s College is one of the largest of the University of Cambridge’s 31 colleges. Colleges are where students live, eat and socialise, and receive small group teaching sessions. St John’s has about 900 students, 160 Fellows (that is, resident academics who teach and research), and about 350 staff.

What it’s like to work for us?

The buildings and grounds of St John’s are a magnificent environment in which to work, but it is the people of St John’s who give the place its unique identity. Diversity, independence and intellectual excellence make it a dynamic place in which people can thrive. Its inclusive environment offers a friendly atmosphere with ample opportunities, training and progression, as well as offering regular opportunities to attend College events and staff meals.
