New exams group HQ will bring together 2,500 staff from 11 sites across city

Eric Parry Architects has completed a new 33,000sq m headquarters for Cambridge Assessment, which oversees the work of the university’s three exam boards.

The Triangle Building was conceived as a series of interconnected structures, centred on two main blocks linked by a bridge-like element that divides the site’s open space into a street-facing entrance plaza and a private garden beyond.

It will provide Cambridge Assessment with enough space to relocate its Cambridge-based staff from 11 locations around the city, and expand its headcount from the current 2,500 to 3,000.
