Try futzing around with the additional enumitem package options (see its documentation), such as widest= and leftmargin=* or leftmargin=(fixed length).

Thanks for answering and answering fast. Appreciated.

I got it working the way I wanted it by setting left margin in enumerate. I tried different values until the margin was big enough to fit the longest labels. The finished example:
