More Detailed Jobs

This dataset provides estimates of employee jobs in London down to 4-digit Standard Industry Classification level, from 1998 to 2022. The latest release was in July 2024 - see the related blog post.

Estimates are based on Business Register and Employment Survey (BRES) and Workforce Jobs (WFJ) data published by the Office for National Statistics (ONS).

The underlying assumptions are outlined in the methodology paper published alongside these data tables.

Note that the 2014 and 2015 updates were republished (in March 2018) following additional disclosure checking.
