Every number tells a story.
The information we gather tells the story of Britain. From employment and financial matters, to crime and justice and healthcare, our research also provides a vital planning platform, helping government make decisions about society and the economy. Our work today helps shape Britain in five, ten, twenty years time. We literally bring numbers to life.
To do so demands a large community of specialists, who work on a rich range of projects, enjoy a wide variety of professional development opportunities, and share ideas and research with leading experts and academics across the UK and internationally. Add an attractive benefits package, together with the chance to enjoy a better work/life balance, and you have an opportunity that's anything but average. Just like you in fact. There aren't many organisations that offer you the chance to help shape national policy, participate in fascinating projects and develop innovative new ways of working that could have international applications.
An Investor in People, we're committed to the continuing professional development of every single member of our team. So we'll make a significant investment in your training and development with in-house programmes as well as through financial support to help you pursue further education (such as MSc, PhD and external training courses through evening classes, National Vocational Qualifications, distance learning material or Open University). We promote wider learning and development too, in areas such as Policy Making, Management, Communications, Project Management, Strategy and Finance.
Given the huge range of projects we work on there'll be any number of opportunities to move throughout our organisation too, gaining an incredible range of skills and experience in the process.
Whether you're a Statistician, Researcher or Economist you'll play a leading role in developing and maintaining relationships with key users in central and local government, as well as the wider statistical community. You'll be working on the design and production of surveys and other sources of data, interpreting the latest trends, and producing analysis and reports for government, researchers and citizens. In short, you'll have your finger on the very pulse of UK society
