I understand that this has been asked 100,000 times but I\'ve pretty much read all 100,000 replies and none of them seem to match what I\'m after. I\'ve tried every possible

    Look at the SQL debug output, the regions are being retrieved using separate queries, that's how Cakes ORM currently works.

    In your case there's a relatively simple workaround. Just create a proper association on the fly, for example Profile belongsTo Region.

    Here's an (untested) example, it adds a belongsTo association with the foreignKey option set to false in order to disable the automatic foreign key generation by the ORM, this is necessary as it would otherwise look for something like Profile.region_id. Note that consequently the contain config has to be changed too!

    $this->Profile->bindModel(array(
        'belongsTo' => array(
            'Region' => array(
                'foreignKey' => false,
                'conditions' => array('Region.id = Store.region_id')
            ),
        )
    ));
    
    $this->Paginator->settings = array(
        'conditions' => array('Profile.job_title_id' => '1'),
        'contain' => array('Store', 'Region')
    );
    

    That should generate a proper query that includes the stores as well as the regions table, making it possible to sort on Region.name. Note that the resulting array will be a little different, Region will not be nested in Store, everything will be placed in the same level, ie:

    Array
    (
        [Profile] => Array
            (
                ....
            )
    
        [Store] => Array
            (
                ....
    
            )
    
        [Region] => Array
            (
                ....
    
            )
    )
    

    Either you modify your view code accordingly, or you transform the retrieved data before passing it to the view. A third option would be to include a nested Region in the contain config, however that would result in additional queries that are totally unnecessary as the data was already fetched with the main query, so I wouldn't recommend that.
