NEW CIVIL SERVICE STATS

Follow @aliceolilly for the main thread ( https://mobile.twitter.com/aliceolilly/status/1298540224641892357)">https://mobile.twitter.com/aliceolil... but here& #39;s a bit more on grade...

The most junior grades - Admin Officer/Assistant - account for a third of all civil servants in 2020, down from nearly half in 2010
It& #39;s the only grade where numbers continue to fall.

There are more people in the more senior grades - the Senior Civil Service, grades 6 and 7, and SEO/HEO - than in 2010.
What does the grade profile look like for each department?

Here& #39;s an image with all the labels taken away, if you want to go wild and make some guesses.

(Answers in next tweet.)
As ever, policy-heavy depts - such as DfID, DCMS, Treasury - are much top-heavier (kites, diamonds), with the big delivery depts (DWP with eg job centres, MoJ, HMRC, Home Office) having most of their staff in more junior grades (domes, pyramids).
These & #39;grade spaceships& #39; show the changes between 2016 and 2020.

One that jumps out is Cabinet Office. That& #39;s largely due to them getting responsibility for employing Fast Streamers (typically HEO) a few years back.

DCMS, Treasury are also bulking up at grades 6&7.
Here& #39;s the @instituteforgov explainer with more about grade - we& #39;ll be updating it with the latest numbers/charts shortly http://bit.ly/2hOoueY
