Claygate, Elmbridge: Jobs

Claygate's workforce is heavily skewed towards professional and knowledge-based roles. Many residents work from home, and there's a strong presence in finance, tech, and education. Professional, scientific and technical work is the biggest employer, accounting for around 15% of working residents. Financial and insurance roles and information and communication jobs are also common — this reflects a well-qualified local workforce with strong ties to London's economy.
