A measurement of the underlying event (UE) activity in proton-proton collisions is performed using events with charged-particle jets produced in the central pseudorapidity region (|η^jet| < 2) and with transverse momentum 1 ≤ p_T ^jet < 100 GeV. The analysis uses a data sample collected at a centre-of-mass energy of 2.76 TeV with the CMS experiment at the LHC. The UE activity is measured as a function of p_T^jet in terms of the average multiplicity and scalar sum of transverse momenta (p_T) of charged particles, with |η| < 2 and p_T > 0.5 GeV, in the azimuthal region transverse to the highest p_T jet direction. By further dividing the transverse region into two regions of smaller and larger activity, various components of the UE activity are separated. As a result, the measurements are compared to previous results at 0.9 and 7 TeV, and to predictions of several Monte Carlo event generators, providing constraints on the modelling of the UE dynamics
