Churchdown St John's, Tewkesbury: Jobs
Jobs
Churchdown St John's has a diverse workforce spread across public services, retail, and construction. What really stands out is how many people work from home — nearly a third of residents do — and that's changing how the neighbourhood feels day to day.
Public administration and defence is the biggest employer, taking up around 15% of working residents. Health and social work comes a close second, with retail and education also playing a major role. These four sectors form the backbone of local employment.
Construction is particularly strong here, with nearly 500 residents working in the trade.
For those who do commute, driving is by far the most common option. But cycling and walking account for a meaningful share of journeys, which suggests plenty of jobs are within reasonable reach of home.
