What the official data says about Enfield
Forklift work is counted inside warehousing and storage, which comes to 3,000 employee jobs in Enfield, from 109,000 employee jobs across the area.
That count covers whole sites rather than truck types, so counterbalance on the bays, reach in the racking and VNA in the narrow aisles are all inside it, together with the picking most operators also do. Freight, warehousing and courier work together make up 4.08% of employment in Enfield.
Median full-time pay in Enfield was £40,036 a year in 2025 across all occupations combined. Forklift work is not published separately at this level, so treat that as area context and read the rate on the advert.
UK Business Counts recorded 45 warehousing and storage sites in Enfield at the March 2025 reference date, 15 of them employing ten people or more. Business counts are rounded one cell at a time, so the bands sit loosely against the total. 25 of them, 55.6%, employ under ten, well below the usual share. Large sites use the full range of truck types, so a ticket beyond counterbalance is worth more here.
Of the warehousing and storage employee jobs the 2024 survey splits by hours in Enfield, 900 are part time, 28.6% of the split. The middle across London is 16.7%, so Enfield sits above it, 2nd of 33 areas on this measure. A high part-time share generally means peak and weekend shifts make up a large part of the local warehouse rota.
Two further counts round out the Enfield picture: 700 employee jobs in freight transport by road, and 745 employee jobs in postal and courier activities.
