Welcome to the CPMA
Who we are
Founded in 2002, the CPMA works to further and promote the interests of its members, who are acting agencies located across the UK. Backed by Equity, we seek to raise the profile of co-ops with both employers and actors and to represent the interests of co-ops with external bodies. We also work with our members to identify and assist in solving the unique problems of a co-op, to encourage good business practice, to develop training skills and opportunities, and to act as an advocate for co-operative working. The CPMA has a Constitution and a Code of Conduct for its member-agencies.
Why choose a co-operative agency?
“I love being part of a co-op, as it gives me agency over my career.”
(Rebecca Crankshaw, Independent Management Ltd)
“I’ve learned a lot about the industry by being in a co-op.”
(Debbie Christie, Stage Centre Management Ltd)
“I want an agent who understands my preferences and keeps me informed.”
(David Vale, Arena Personal Management Ltd)
“There’s no pressure to do things you feel unhappy with.”
(Debbie Christie, Stage Centre Management Ltd)
“I love being a member of my co-op agency, not simply represented by it – there is ownership there and responsibility for my career, and the careers of others.”
(Ruth Curtis, Direct Personal Management Ltd)
