Mission Official statistics are for the benefit of society and the economy. They allow better public policies and the effective measurement of those policies; they inform the direction of economic and commercial activities; they provide valuable information for analysts, researchers and public bodies; and they enable the public to hold to account all organisations that spend public money, thus informing democratic debate.
Description The Office for National Statistics (ONS) is the UK’s largest independent producer of official statistics and is the recognised national statistical institute for the UK. We are responsible for collecting and publishing statistics related to the economy, population and society at national, regional and local levels. We also conduct the census in England and Wales every ten years. ONS plays a leading role in national and international good practice in the production of official statistics. We are the executive office of the UK Statistics Authority and although they are separate, they are still closely related.

Never has there been a more exciting time to join the Office for National Statistics. Our “Statistics for the Public Good” strategy continues to drive transformational change throughout the organisation and the Office has already taken huge strides forward to becoming a modern, technically focused, data driven organisation.
