Operational delivery roles
The Operational Delivery Profession (ODP) is the largest profession in the Office for National Statistics (ONS) and across government.
As member of the ODP, you will help to make government policies, strategies and plans a reality. You will do this by delivering important services and outputs directly to the public or supporting those who do.
ODP is critical to the successful delivery of services and support to people across the UK and abroad.
Operational delivery at the ONS
We could not deliver our important work without the support of our operational delivery colleagues at the ONS.
You could be part of our field community, working across the UK or one of the business support professionals in each of the directorates in the ONS.
As part of our acquisitions and ingest teams, you will help to bring in new sources of data for our analysts and survey teams.

“Working in ONS has given me great variety in my roles, and flexibility in the way I work, allowing me to build skills and develop my career my way.”
Charlotte – Head of Technical Training
Learning and development in operational delivery
At the ONS, we can help you develop your skills in operational delivery through learning, on-the-job training, mentoring, formal training and apprenticeships.
This can also be supported by cross-government ODP profession learning pathways and opportunities
If you are looking to start a new career, an apprenticeship is a great way for people from all backgrounds to gain new skills. It’s an opportunity to earn and learn at the same time, working alongside experienced staff as you develop.
“Being a Personal Assistant in the ONS, no two days are the same! I’ve developed a variety of different skills that I apply to the new challenges each day brings. It’s exciting and always keeps me on my toes.”
Jacqueline – Personal Assistant
