The only time the books even get into anything of a class analysis is when Hermione is trying to abolish actual chattel slavery of elves. She's intensely passionate about it, but most of the other characters treat her as some annoying shrill activist worried about nothing. Then she just seems to drop the entire thing later.
No other class structure seems to exist among wizards. Every wizard presented has a job as a government bureaucrat, athlete, teacher, or small business owner. I don't remember any wizards being described as wage based workers for a private business. Those types of jobs seem relegated to elves and goblins. I think I remember one book had a discussion about what the students wanted to do after they graduated and all of them said either magic cop, teacher, or small business owner.
