About working in Loughborough

Loughborough is a market town of around 60,000 in north Leicestershire, dominated by Loughborough University and the engineering and sport-science cluster the university has built up around it. Live vacancies skew towards lab, R&D and university-adjacent roles, plus the usual retail and care work.

The biggest single employer is the university itself — academic, technical, professional services, plus a steady churn of part-time and term-time work for students. Beyond the campus: 3M Healthcare on Charnwood Road, AstraZeneca's Charnwood R&D site, Brush Electrical Machines (transformers and rotating machines), BAE Systems' Submarines facility, and a fair scattering of engineering SMEs that have spun out of the university's incubator. Sport science is its own micro-cluster — British Triathlon, Sport England's Loughborough campus and a handful of sports-tech start-ups all sit on or near the university grounds.

Transport: Loughborough station is on the Midland Main Line — London St Pancras in 75 minutes, Nottingham 20, Leicester 12. East Midlands Airport (parts of which sit in Castle Donington, just up the A6) is a major employer for ground handling, logistics and DHL distribution. Postcodes: LE11 is the town proper; LE12 covers the Charnwood villages south and east.
