St Bride's Major, Vale of Glamorgan: Jobs

St Bride's Major is a rural neighbourhood where most people drive to work. Education, health, and retail are the biggest employers here — and nearly half the working population now works mainly from home. Education and health together make up over a quarter of all jobs in the neighbourhood. Retail and wholesale trade comes third. Professional and technical roles are also well represented, showing you've got a skilled workforce locally. Working from home is particularly striking here — 894 out of 2,033 workers do so. That's a significant shift for a rural community and suggests many residents have office-based or knowledge-economy roles they can do remotely. For those who do commute, driving is by far the most common way to get to work. Public transport use is minimal, which you'd expect in a rural Welsh village.
