Working as a Companion in Stratford
The 2012 Olympics left Stratford fundamentally changed. The E20 postcode — literally created for the Olympic Park — is now home to a growing community of young professionals, a new cultural quarter with the London Stadium and the Aquatics Centre, and some of the best transport connections in east London. For a companion based in E15 or E20, Stratford offers both local opportunity and exceptional access to the rest of the city.
The Stratford companion has a particular advantage: Westfield Stratford City, the largest urban shopping centre in Europe, drives significant footfall of out-of-town visitors, hotel stays at the neighbouring Premier Inn and ibis, and corporate traffic from the businesses that have relocated to the area. This creates a more varied and often surprising client base than the area's reputation might suggest.
More significantly, Stratford's position at the junction of the Elizabeth line, Central line, DLR and Overground means that a companion based here can reach Canary Wharf in eight minutes, Liverpool Street in eleven, and central London in under twenty. This makes the entire London market accessible from a local base — and means that a Stratford-based companion can earn central London rates without the central London rent.
Local Stratford rates are growing in line with the area's regeneration. Combined with easy access to Canary Wharf and central London, companions here can achieve strong overall earnings.
