Whether you're actively job hunting or just passively scrolling while pretending to work, we've got another batch of local vacancies for your perusal. This week features a hearty mix: Glastonbury's cultural scene needs wrangling, sofas need selling, and early morning newspapers still need a dedicated soul with a strong bladder and a functioning alarm clock.
Here's the latest round-up of jobs from Glastonbury, Street, Wells and Shepton Mallet.
Glastonbury Town Council is hiring for this key role, and it's as big a job as it sounds. You'll be steering the town's Information Centre and the Tribunal building, programming events, overseeing a shop, herding volunteers, liaising with artists, and generally being the smiling face of Glasto's public cultural offer. It's full-time, permanent, and pays £29,064 to £31,022. If you've got stamina, spreadsheets and a sense of humour, you can apply here.
If you can drive, inspire and wrangle teens, Lexia Education Services in Wells wants you. They're hiring a full-time Outreach Mentor, with pay between £109-£130/day, supporting young people with SEMH and SEN needs. Driving licence required, saintly patience preferred.
Myshon is hiring to support vulnerable adults across Wells and beyond. As a Housing Officer, you'll be paid £13.39/hour to juggle tenancies and troubleshoot life's more complex moments. It's part to full-time, and you'll need a licence, decent IT skills and a knack for navigating human drama.
If you can flog baked goods with a smile and withstand the aroma of 40-degree sausage rolls all day, Rowe's Cornish Bakery at Glastonbury Tesco wants you. They're hiring for 10 hours a week at £12.21-£12.50/hour. It's permanent, it's part-time, and it's a good excuse to eat your weight in flaky pastry. Find out more.
EE in Wells is hiring a full-time Customer Guide. It pays up to £30,500/year depending on your knack for contracts and patience with confused customers. You'll get perks, parking, and the joy of explaining roaming charges 27 times a day.
Living Homes on Street High Street is after someone to shift furniture, fires and other homey items. It's full-time, pays £12.21/hour, and doesn't require previous experience – just a willingness to lift the odd armchair and smile while doing it. Part-time job-sharers also welcome. The Sales Advisor role is here.
St Benedict's Nursing Home in Glastonbury is looking for full-time or part-time health care assistants. Pay starts at £12.21/hour, and the benefits include flexibility, training and a family-run vibe. Not a bad way to make a genuine difference close to home.
Fancy earning up to £810/week delivering papers before sunrise? NewsTeam is after morning delivery drivers in Wookey and St Cuthbert. It's self-employed, includes bonuses and daily mileage pay, and requires your own car plus heroic early starts.
Catering International is after kitchen assistants and porters in Shepton Mallet and surrounding areas. From £12.50/hour, with temporary to permanent contracts, flexible hours and travel pay if you roam. DBS may be required, but they can help sort that.
And there you have it — enough options to tempt even the most committed of professional procrastinators. Whether you're chasing a new career or just a less soul-sapping schedule, now's a good time to take a punt. Worst case? You end up with a decent story for the pub.
