What jobs do people do in the UK?

[bricolage]

Alright, bit of a strange question here as its just a query about empirical data.

According to data on wikipedia (from somewhere else) the UK labour force is divided thusly;
Agriculture: 1.4%
Industry: 18.2%
Services: 80.4%

This is of a labour force of just over 31 million.

What I am really trying to work out is a breakdown of that 80.4% if anyone knows where it might be available. I've been checking the ONS site but haven't really found much. Any numbers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I'll have a look. Can I ask what you're collecting the data for?

Just personal interest really.
