Who are the CBI?

We are a not for profit organisation who's mission it is to help create and sustain the conditions in which businesses in the UK can compete and prosper for the benefit of all. We are the premier lobbying organisation for UK business on national and international issues.

What do the CBI do?

We work with the UK government, international legislators, the business community and policymakers to help UK businesses compete effectively. Every department of government influences the prosperity and profitability of business, but the impact of proposed legislation is not necessarily fully understood by those who devise it. The CBI is therefore of crucial importance to the entire business community because it can mobilise business opinion and successfully bring influence to bear on government.

How do we do what we do?

CBI policy is decided by our members – senior professionals from all sectors and sizes of business are directly involved in the policy-making process. Our network of regional offices around the UK in Beijing, Brussels, Washington and New Delhi provide on-the-ground support for our members.

How can you be a part of it all?

Whether you work as a Policy Adviser with exposure to civil servants and MP's, a Regional Director who meets with member companies, or, provide vital back office support as an Administrator or a Financial Accountant; you will be contributing to the CBI's reputation as the premier lobbying organisation.

Working for the CBI

The CBI employs approximately 200 permanent staff. The majority of which work in our head office in Centre Point, London, and the remaining in our 12 regional offices and our international offices in Brussels, Washington, Beijing and New Delhi. The CBI is committed to and promotes staff training and the development of all levels of staff. This is reflected in our graduate recruitment scheme and also our Management Development Programme. All staff are appraised on an annual basis with reviews taking place at regular intervals. The CBI is an equal opportunities employer and committed to recruiting a diverse range of individuals. We recruit staff in a number of different areas, including Policy, Membership, National Accounts, Corporate Communications, Marketing and Support Services (HR, Finance, IT).
