St Paul's, Cheltenham: Jobs
Jobs
St Paul's economy runs on retail, health, and hospitality. You'll find a strong public sector presence too, and nearly a third of residents now work from home.
Wholesale and retail trade is the biggest employer, taking up around 19% of working residents. Health and social work comes second, with hospitality and education close behind. These four sectors alone cover more than half of all local jobs.
Manufacturing and construction still matter here, reflecting Gloucester's industrial roots.
Working from home is now the norm for over 1,000 residents. Most people drive to work, but a good number walk or cycle — which tells you many jobs are close by.
