Earl's Court, Kensington and Chelsea: Jobs
Jobs
Earl's Court has a highly skilled workforce dominated by professional services and finance. More than half of residents worked from home at the time of the 2021 Census.
Professional, scientific and technical roles make up the largest share of employment, with financial and insurance work close behind. These two sectors together employ around a third of all working residents. Health and social work, retail, and education are also major employers here.
Remote working is really striking in this neighbourhood. Nearly 60% of working residents were mainly home-based in 2021. For those who do commute, the Tube is the most popular choice, with walking and cycling also common — which makes sense given how central and well-connected the area is.
