Jobs in Shepton Mallet: Engineers, drivers, fitters and clinical roles

Whether you're chasing a bigger payslip, a shorter commute, or just a boss who doesn't send emails at 10pm, this week's list in Shepton has a bit of everything. There's serious demand for people who can fix things, drive big things, or lead sensitive services.
Let's start with people skills. Adult lead – eating disorders (SWEDA) is a 28-hour-a-week clinical leadership role helping deliver adult services for those experiencing eating disorders. You'll deputise for the Clinical Lead, support area leads, and play a key part in shaping accessible, compassionate services. Clinical experience is essential – passion doubly so.
Now onto the engineering front, which is looking particularly lively. Multi‑skilled maintenance engineer offers a £48.5k+ salary, permanent hours and day shifts only (Monday to Friday). It's classic FMCG work – proactive, reactive and preventative maintenance – with the promise of development and training thrown in.
If you're confident with machinery, Mechanical fitter is offering £47k plus bonus on a 4 on, 4 off days shift. You'll be doing the hands-on stuff – welding, fabrication, and general plant maintenance. If you prefer your shifts in the dark, Mechanical fitter (night shift) bumps that up to £52k, Monday to Friday overnight.

Stepping up a rung, Mechanical maintenance team leader is a senior role on a Monday–Thursday night shift, paying around £53k plus bonus. You'll be 90% hands-on, leading a team of fitters in a quarry setting. It's for someone who's done the work and is ready to guide others through it.
Still on the tools, Mars is hiring a Shift maintenance engineer (multiskilled) – Evercreech. This one offers £43.6k–£46.1k, a 32-hour week, and the usual rota of days, nights and weekends. Solid benefits here – private medical, flu jabs, employee shop – all wrapped into a tidy package for those with the know-how.
Now to the drivers' seat. HGV class 2 multi‑drop driver (days) is offering £16/hour, Monday–Friday from 7:30am, for those who know how to load, deliver and log without drama. You'll need the right licence and past multi-drop experience.
Meanwhile, HGV class 1 shunter driver is £17/hour, Monday–Friday from 11am, moving trailers around a yard. You'll need a class 1 licence, CPC, Tacho, and ideally some shunting experience. Sensible footwear a given.
Rounding it out, HGV class 1 drivers (Thrive Group) are being courted with £17–£18/hour, flexible shifts and a promise of local and regional runs. If you're tired of contracts that treat flexibility like a favour, this one's worth a look.
That's the Shepton round-up this week: practical, clinical, mechanical, and more than a few ways to earn above the local average. Still browsing? Head to the Shepton Mallet jobs board for more.
