Temporary jobcentres

This page lists the locations and opening dates of temporary jobcentres.

Applies to England, Scotland and Wales

During the pandemic, and in direct response to the anticipated pressures on the labour market, the Department for Work and Pensions secured time limited funding to:

  • rapidly introduce additional jobcentre capacity
  • provide more Work Coaches to support claimants

In total 194 temporary jobcentres or additional space in existing jobcentres were added to the existing network of 639 established jobcentre sites. These temporary jobcentres increased capacity to provide tailored face-to-face support and also supported the government’s Plan for Jobs, helping people back into the labour market right across the UK.

In July 2022, the department outlined its plans to take advantage of lease breaks and vacate older, poorer-quality jobcentre buildings. Several of the temporary sites, where they offer better, more suitable accommodation than our existing offices – and provide better value for money for the taxpayer – will be retained. Established jobcentres will move into these buildings. Others will be decommissioned where the increased capacity is no longer needed.
