Peter Burrows

Peter was appointed Chief Executive Officer in October 2019 having joined the Society as Finance Director in 2016. His vision is for The Cambridge to be a thriving, independent, mutual business, dedicated to helping people have a home and being a trusted place for people to save.

He has over 20 years of financial services experience, having held senior roles in both mutual and plc businesses and worked in the UK as well as mainland Europe. As well as ensuring that The Cambridge remains a member-centric, financially secure business, Peter is committed to the further development of our ‘Making The Difference’ programme aimed at supporting our members and their local communities.

A mathematics graduate of Oxford University, Peter now embraces ‘all things Cambridge’ as a keen road cyclist and runner alongside the River Cam. A favourite area is around Magdalene Bridge, which for him is where history and modernity meet.

Peter sits on the Nominations committee and also attends the Audit, Risk and Remuneration & Organisational Design committees.
