About this audience

Two groups lead by job level: Senior staff at 46 percent and VP at 14 percent. Senior staff is over-represented: 46 percent here against 14 percent across the database. Two groups lead by industry: Professional, scientific and technical at 32 percent and Business support services at 25 percent. Business support services is over-represented: 25 percent here against 11 percent across the database. No single county or borough dominates: City of London is largest at 13 percent, Westminster follows at 12 percent, then Camden at 4.5 percent. City of London is over-represented: 13 percent here against 7.7 percent across the database. The three largest are City of London, Westminster and Camden, together 29 percent of contacts. A company can hold several SIC codes, so industry shares overlap and can add to more than 100 percent.

8,495 of the contacts are emailable, meaning a named email scoring 70 or more at a corporate subscriber. 10,615 (74 percent) have a telephone number held, above 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 uses one filter. The job role filter maps written titles to one role through the Emailmovers title dictionary, so variants of a title count together. It covers named business emails at active UK companies. Individual subscribers, meaning sole traders and ordinary partnerships, are excluded by default, which leaves out 5 contacts here. 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.
