Grantham St Wulfram's, South Kesteven: Jobs
Jobs
Grantham St Wulfram's has a diverse job market. Retail and wholesale lead the way, making up nearly 1 in 5 jobs, followed by health and social work, manufacturing, and education. It's the kind of employment mix you'd expect in a working market town rather than a commuter hub.
Construction is also a significant employer, which points to ongoing local development.
Most people here drive to work — over 1,100 residents commute by car. But it's worth noting that nearly a quarter of residents work mainly from home. Walking to work is surprisingly common too, with 447 residents doing it regularly. That tells you something important: plenty of jobs are genuinely local to the neighbourhood.
