Demarest Jobs & Employment
Demarest is a small residential borough, so its in-town employment market is concentrated in public and private education, municipal services, professional offices, health and wellness, restaurants, property services and neighborhood businesses.
The larger Northern Valley and Bergen County employment market expands quickly beyond the borough, with additional opportunities in Closter, Cresskill, Tenafly, Englewood, Hackensack and the New York City region.
