    Brief

    The Office for National Statistics (ONS) is seeking a specialist recruitment agency to source and place temporary field interviewers across England, Wales, and Scotland. Field interviewers conduct household surveys, collect data, and support members of the public in completing online surveys that inform government policy and national statistics. ONS currently has approximately 500 permanent interviewers but requires additional contingent labour on fixed-term contracts to fill regional gaps, particularly in underserved areas where civil service recruitment restrictions limit permanent hiring. The successful agency will identify and deploy qualified candidates to fulfil ONS field interviewer roles in specified locations on a temporary basis. Ideal candidates should be capable of conducting face-to-face interviews, gathering household data, and providing technical support to survey respondents. This is an opportunity for agencies experienced in placing temporary staff in government and research settings.
