I think مسئول التعداد أو موظف التعداد can be applied to various officials who are responsible for the process of census. That why I prefer using جامع بيانات, as it applies, exclusively, to the one who collect data and info.

census taker
مندوب التعداد


Explanation:
أولا من الخطأ اللغوي استخدام اسم الآلة (عداد) للدلالة على اسم الفاعل
اسم الفاعل من عدّ هو عاد
أما عدّاد فهو اسم الآلة كما ذكر الزميل أحمد

نأتي الآن للترجمة
لابد من التفريق بين كلمتي
census and enumeration
census means تعداد
enumeration حصر (في لغة الصحافة والسياسة والعلوم الاجتماعية
census taker مندوب التعداد

ويطلق عليه مندوب لأن وظيفته أو عمله لا يتعدى تسجيل البيانات
و يوكل لغيره من المسئولين في مصلحة التعبئة والإحصاء القيام بعمل التعداد أو الإحصاء أو الحصر

و من الخطأ أن نسمي
census taker and enumerator
مسئول التعداد /عداد
