What the official data says about North Northamptonshire
Warehousing and storage in North Northamptonshire is counted at 7,000 employee jobs, 4.67% of the 150,000 employee jobs the survey records in the area.
Picking and packing sit inside that count, along with goods in, stock control and shift management, because the survey counts sites rather than tasks. The 2,500 freight transport by road jobs in North Northamptonshire are counted separately, and they are the vehicles those sites load.

Warehousing that shape is built on big sheds, and big sheds mean four on four off, twilights and nights.
