Wells is hiring, and the current crop of job listings offers everything from leadership in facilities to care work by night, with a few solid night-shift pay packets thrown in for good measure.

Healthcare roles are leading the way, with Barchester Healthcare recruiting both a Night Care Assistant and a Regional Senior Care Assistant in Wells. The night post pays £13.44 an hour and focuses on companionship, daily support, and high-quality care in a residential setting. The regional post covers a 20-mile patch, pays £15.10 an hour, and requires a Level 2 NVQ in Health & Social Care. Both roles come with strong benefits, including training, bonuses and support packages. More on the Night Care Assistant role here, and details on the Regional Senior role here.

For those with management ambitions, a local company is offering £40,000 to £50,000 for a Site Maintenance Manager (Facilities). Based in a brand-new facility, the role promises career progression, daytime hours, and the sort of benefits that come with being valued for your engineering expertise. View the full listing.

If your strengths lie in logistics, Thrive Shepton is hiring a Logistics Operative (Nights) in Wells. It's fast-paced, physical work – stacking, picking, scanning, and keeping things flowing in the warehouse – but with paid breaks, free meals, and up to £15.65 an hour on offer, it's a good shout for night owls. Apply here.

In education, Hays is on the lookout for a Primary Supply Teacher to join the pool across Wells. Whether you're newly qualified or have years behind you, this flexible role lets you jump into Key Stage 1 and 2 classrooms on a short-term basis. More on that here.

On the production line, a Production Operative role based in East Horrington offers £12.50 an hour and a route to a permanent contract. The job involves labelling, filling, packing and machine operation – no food involved – in a clean and tidy environment. Read more.

And if you've got a sharp eye – literally – an Optometrist opportunity at an award-winning independent practice in Wells is offering up to £65,000, plus flexible weekends, advanced kit (hello, OCT), and even the potential for further clinical training. Check out the details.

Whether you're after stability, flexibility, or just looking to get stuck into something new, Wells is currently offering work to suit just about every skillset. For more, visit the Wells Nub News jobs page.
