This means jobs in Bishops Stortford cover nearly all sectors of the economy, from light manufacturing, to financial jobs, leisure and transport. There are a number of public sector work opportunities in the town, too, since the headquarters of East Herts District Council are located in the town.

Nevertheless, the town has plenty of job opportunities in its own right. The nearby lawn mower manufacturer of Hayter have their production facility nearby in the village of Spellbrook.
