About this audience

Two groups lead by county or borough: Hertfordshire at 31 percent and Essex at 19 percent. By job level, Owner holds 83 percent of contacts (855), well ahead of Director at 7.3 percent. Owner is over-represented: 83 percent here against 13 percent across the database. By job function, General management holds 90 percent of contacts (925), well ahead of Operations at 2.4 percent. General management is over-represented: 90 percent here against 22 percent across the database. The three largest are Hertfordshire, Essex and Cambridgeshire, together 68 percent of contacts.

770 of the contacts are emailable, meaning a named email scoring 70 or more at a corporate subscriber. 490 (48 percent) have a telephone number held, below the database figure of 72 percent. Every telephone number is screened against the TPS and CTPS each night through a licensed screening service, and carries its status and the date of that screen. We treat a screen as valid for 28 days, our own rule rather than the ICO's. Screen the numbers you are supplied yourself before calling, and again every 28 days.

This count combines two filters. The job role filter takes 4 roles from the Emailmovers title dictionary together, and variants of each title count with it. The region filter comes from the ONS Postcode Directory. It covers named business emails at active UK companies. Individual subscribers, meaning sole traders and ordinary partnerships, are excluded by default. Emailmovers relies on legitimate interests under UK GDPR Article 6(1)(f) for named business contacts.

How we count explains title matching, places and rounding. The trust page lists sources, sub-processors and the legal basis.
