Trafford wins ONS jobs

The Office for National Statistics (ONS) has chosen a 180,000 sq ft building in Trafford Park to host the back office operations, creating 1,300 new jobs in the area.

The paper data capture operation is being managed and run by UK Data Capture (UKDC) on behalf of ONS. The secure facility in Trafford Park, which has not been identified for security reasons, will be the centre of all the data capture activity for the 2011 census.

Stephen Meyler, director of UK Data Capture Ltd said Trafford Park “stood out” after a year-long nationwide search by UKDC.

London has two mayors. One, a mop-topped former journalist, wields more power than anybody outside the Cabinet and many within it. The other, a sober accountant, spends a significant proportion of his year in office jetting around the world telling anyone who will listen what jolly fine chaps our bankers really are.
