We are based in the world-leading technology cluster and historic city of Cambridge. Our modern studio is on the Cambridge Science Park, which is home to around 130 companies employing 7000 people, and ranging from inspiring tech start-ups to global leaders in their field.
Our spacious and open plan office is designed to allow everyone to work at their best. With sit stand desks, plenty of meeting rooms and informal break out areas and the “Space Bar”, our excellent staff restaurant.
Every Thursday at the Science Park we have food trucks visit with a wide array of foods from across the globe. The Science Park is easily accessible by car with great links to the A14 and M11. It is also closely situated to public transport links including Cambridge North Station and the Guided Bus. Whilst many of our people live in and around Cambridge, others reside in the rural areas of Cambridgeshire, often within easy walking or cycling distance of the studio.
For those who wish to relocate to the Cambridge area and work either entirely in the studio or flexibly between the studio and home, we can provide generous financial and practical support to facilitate your move.

In Cambridge, cycling is one the main transport methods with dedicated cycle lanes all around the city. We offer free, regular bike servicing by a local bike company by appointment. You are also entitled to ‘The Cycle to Work Scheme’ which enables you to save tax and national insurance on bike hire and cycling safety equipment used primarily for commuting, with the option to purchase after 12 months, spreading the cost across a whole year. You can also use the bike for leisure purposes.

A Health Cash plan allows you to claim back some or all of the costs of routine health expenses such as dental, optical, chiropody or physiotherapy. It is also possible to claim back the excess under the private medical scheme. The company will pay for a level of cover which you can increase and also add your spouse or partner, and children can be included free of charge. This plan also entitles you to access discounts and deals on various shops and services.
The Frontier Flexitime system is intended to give people a greater freedom over their working hours whilst ensuring that we continue to achieve work objectives, which are based in very large part on effective team working. Our working week consists of 37.5 hours with core hours being 10am – 4pm, with Flexitime you have the option to work flexibly around those hours.
Sharesave is a handy way to save directly from your net salary each month, providing you with the opportunity to buy shares in Frontier Developments plc at a discounted rate.
