Social Researcher
Opportunities in Newport and Titchfield
£25,587 to £31,963 (plus benefits and pension)
From employment data to crime trends to fertility rates, statistics are vital to every imaginable area of our ever-changing lives. But without effective research and analysis, statistics will never tell the full story. The Office for National Statistics has a unique role within the UK. It’s our job to ensure that frontline decisions are built on an understanding of, and engagement with, the people and organisations affected by that decision as well as an understanding of the wider social consequences. That’s why insightful, in-depth research and analysis are so important.
If you have, or are studying towards, a social science degree, and have some statistics, research and/or analysis experience, come and work with us on a broad range of in-house and external research and analysis projects primarily for the Office of National Statistics but also on occasions, on behalf of other government departments. Some of the Projects you may work on include; Labour Market Surveys, the development of the 2021 Census and population statistics. Your days will be varied, from data analysis and research of qualitative, quantitative and administrative data, to designing and piloting questionnaires used to collect data, to exploring new ways to use data or data sources more effectively.
