Study says Cambridge is the best place to work in the UK

People here already know it, but now Cambridge has been confirmed as the top place to work in the country, according to a new study carried out by employment site Glassdoor.

 

Judging against criteria including how easy it is to get a job (hiring opportunity), how affordable it is to live there (cost of living), and how satisfied employees are working there (job satisfaction), Cambridge - which scored 4.1 - narrowly beat Milton Keynes (4), with Nottingham (also at 4) running a close third. Peterborough came fifth in the list.

Cambridge was considered a prime spot because of its successful cluster of high tech companies, while the emergence of some of the growing industrial cities in the North meant London was outside the top 20 of this year's list.
