Under Army 2020, 4th Infantry Brigade merged with 15th Infantry Brigade in 2015. The latter became "Headquarters North East", which was the point of contact for the counties of Northumberland, Tyne and Wear, County Durham, North Yorkshire, East Yorkshire, West Yorkshire and South Yorkshire.[1] Under the Army 2020 Refine reorganisation, 4th Infantry Brigade and Headquarters North East remained responsible for reserve units in the north east of England.[2]

On 1 August 2024, the unit merged with Headquarters North West to form Headquarters North.[3]
