Q&A: Where are the Employers and Jobs in Vermont’s NEK?
“I want to relocate to Vermont, ideally to the NEK, but where are the jobs and who are the big employers?”
A: Unless you have your own business (as many do in Vermont’s Northeast Kingdom), plan to start one or have a telecommuting gig (as a growing number of VT and NEK transplants do), you can explore work opportunities through some of the employers or job boards listed below (this list is not exhaustive). While many living in the NEK successfully find work locally, others find work in other nearby areas, including Littleton, NH, Montpelier, Wells River, White River Junction and Burlington.
