From the care corridors of Barchester to the back roads of Coxley, there are jobs going in and around Wells that might suit the freshly motivated, the cautiously curious, or the quietly desperate (we've all been there). Here's a local look at what's hiring without the nonsense.

There's steady work for detail-minded types with The Sleek Easy Clean, who need cleaners across Street and Glastonbury. Pay's decent (£12.50–£15/hour), hours are flexible, and there's no mystery jargon—just proper domestic and holiday let cleaning.

Warehouse & Logistics Manager in Shepton Mallet offers Monday–Friday sanity (9–5, no weekends), private medical, and 25+ days' holiday. It's permanent and pays £25,935.52. If you're organised, unflappable, and know your way around a stockroom, this could be your corner of calm.

Care work dominates this week. Healthcare Assistants are needed for agency shifts in residential and nursing homes—£14.01/hour with flexible hours and weekly pay. Or you could go permanent as a Care Assistant with Barchester in Wells, earning £14.20/hour and getting access to all their employee perks.

Those with experience and a Level 3 NVQ can apply as a Senior Carer on the bank team, earning £17.30/hour, or join as a Housekeeping Assistant for £14.29/hour. If you're better with banter than bedsheets, try the Hospitality Host role (£12.71/hour) or the Gardener post, also at £12.71/hour. Bonus points if you're competitive—there's a flower competition.

Over in education, Prospero Teaching is hiring Outreach Tutors for 1:1 work with pupils out of mainstream education. It's £30/hour, part-time, and flexible to fit your life. You'll need QTS, some creativity, and a lot of patience.

If driving's more your lane, there's a Class 1 Driver position in Coxley—£18/hour, days or nights, with curtain slider and trunking work. LGV C licence, digicard, and DQC required. It's haulage with some haul for your wallet.
