More than one-half will be technology roles

Facebook will hire 1,000 people for its office in London in 2020 across departments including technology (software engineering, data science), product development and safety.

Vice president for Europe, the Middle East and Africa Nicola Mendelsohn told Paul Sandle and Elizabeth Howcroft of Reuters that more than one-half of the new jobs will be in technology, while the social network will also beef up its community integrity team, which is responsible for detecting and removing harmful content from Facebook, Instagram, Messenger and WhatsApp.
