Location

The location for this role is Titchfield (Fareham)

This role requires regular attendance at an ONS office, with a minimum of 2-3 days per week worked on site. The postholder will be expected to work in the office on a regular basis to undertake in‑person activities. This level of attendance will apply for most of the programme, although requirements may vary at different stages, with periods of increased or reduced on-site working in response to census priorities, delivery phases and business need.

The induction process for the role will be conducted in person.

The nature of this post requires regular on‑site attendance as a core requirement for the role. This limits the extent to which attendance flexibilities can be accommodated. We remain committed to supporting colleagues with workplace adjustments and carers passports where appropriate.

External candidates will be expected to attend the office as needed to perform their duties. Occasional travel to other ONS sites is also likely.

About the job

Job summary

Are you ready to be part of something that shapes the future of our nation? Do you thrive on variety, enjoy working with lots of teams, and want to make a real difference? If so, this could be the opportunity you've been looking for.

The Office for National Statistics (ONS) is the UKs largest producer of official statistics, covering a range of key economic, social and demographic topics. These include measuring changes in the value of the UK economy, estimating the size, geographic distribution and characteristics of the population, and providing indicators of price inflation, employment, earnings, crime and migration.

Census 2031 represents our most ambitious data collection project yet a once-in-a-decade opportunity to capture a complete picture of everyone living in England and Wales. Building on the digital success of 2021, we're pioneering new ways to reach every household and community, ensuring no one is left uncounted. This vital work will provide the foundation for policy decisions, resource allocation, and community planning for the next decade.

Your work will support delivery of this transformational project that will shape how we understand and support our nation's future. Youll be part of a team that ensures everyone is countedand every voice is heard. We're building a culture that values collaboration, fresh thinking, and respect for diverse expertise. Whether you're a seasoned professional or bringing new perspectives, you'll be part of a team that welcomes bold ideas, works transparently, and thrives on solving complex challenges together.

The Operational Delivery Profession (ODP) is the largest profession in the Civil Service. ODPs 200,000+ members work in a wide range of operational delivery roles across government, providing essential services that support and protect UK citizens at home and overseas. They help to make ONS a great place to work.

As a member, ODP supports you by providing learning and development opportunities, career pathways, tools and resources to help develop your skills and progress your career. This is an exciting opportunity to join a modern, innovative and inclusive Civil Service profession that sits at the heart of public service delivery.

There are two roles available:

Role 1 Senior Service Operations Manager - Central Operations.

Role 2 - Senior Service Operations Manager - Print Services.

Job description

These roles sit within Census Service Delivery & Operations division and plays a key part in shaping the delivery and performance of Census services.

Each role will be part of one of the following services:

Print Services - This service prints and sends paper questionnaires and non questionnaire materials, such as letters and paper supplementary materials. It also covers postal services to collect, receipt, and return completed questionnaires for data capture.

Central Operational Management - Central Operational Management provides the oversight, coordination, and control needed to deliver complex services as a single, integrated operation. It ensures end-to-end service alignment, maintains operational readiness, and drives consistent performance through effective monitoring, quality assurance, and incident management. Acting as a central control function, it enables informed decision-making, rapid issue resolution, and continuous improvement, ensuring services are delivered safely, efficiently, and to required standards.

Youll work collaboratively with colleagues in Census Service Delivery and Operations, design teams, and delivery partners (internal and external) to bring services to life throughout the Census lifecycle.

Please note, while successful candidates will be aligned to a specific role, our intention is to rotate role holders through the different roles over the lifecycle of the programme. This will provide individuals with career development opportunities, a broader understanding of all areas of the census operations and enable the programme to flex resources to meet key demands.

We are offering informal drop-in sessions with panel members for candidates interested in learning more about these roles. If you would like to attend, please email [email protected] and we will arrange a Microsoft Teams meeting.
