Here's your no-fluff guide to what's hiring around town, whether you're dead set on overnight shifts, dabbling in maintenance, or fancy yourself a tutor for the reckonably disaffected.

If scrubbing holiday lets while avoiding your own flat feels oddly appealing, the Domestic & Holiday Let Cleaner gig in Street and Glastonbury pays between £12.50 and £15 an hour. Flexible hours, paid training, and zero management jargon. Just elbow grease and maybe jealousy-inducing before-and-after photos.

If you're trickier with powercuts than polishing, the Maintenance Assistant role at a Wells care home pays £12.71 an hour. You'll be patching up leaky taps and cracked walls while residents count sheep. Toolbelt optional, satisfaction guaranteed.

Prefer wheels and fumes over tiles and fumes? The Shunter/Fueller job in Wells offers £12.50 an hour and needs a PCV licence, flexible hours, and a willingness to push buses around. Anywhere not in the slow lane is fair game.

If three-weekend wake-ups aren't your thing but shoulder-pads and high-vis jackets are, the Site Manager (Night) job pays £280 a night for a 13-week retail project. You'll need CSCS, SMSTS and First Aid certificates, and a love for keeping things moving while everyone else is asleep.

If running the night shift and meds are your jam, the Senior Night Carer position in Wells offers £15.54 an hour to lead the overnight crew and keep everyone calm, clean and dosed. You'll mentor staff too, so bring your big-sibling energy.

Need a flexible fallback? The Senior Carer – Bank job in Wells offers £17.30 an hour to lead shifts and manage care plans on a cover basis. It's the job equivalent of having a key but no lease.

For the kind-hearted multitasker, the Care Assistant job in Wells pays £14.20 an hour for providing companionship, cuppas, and a steady presence to care home residents. Training's included, patience is assumed.

Prefer to make asphalt moves instead? The Class 1 Driver job in Wells pays £18 an hour (£16.80 PAYE) and needs an LGV C licence for general haulage and trunking. It's you, the road, and a truckload of whatever.
