Whether you're chasing a new challenge or ready to ditch the commute, there's plenty happening on the Shepton Mallet jobs board this week.

Holcim UK is looking to fill not one but two key roles at their Torr Works Quarry site. First up, they're recruiting a Mechanical Maintenance Supervisor for their night shift. You'll need a Level 3 NVQ and strong experience in industrial maintenance, but in return you'll get a competitive salary, enhanced family benefits, and the chance to be part of their push for sustainable construction. Find out more.

They're also hiring an Assessor & Trainer to develop new quarry staff. You'll be assessing VQs, delivering mobile plant training and helping build a safe, skilled workforce. You'll need experience and ideally a CAVA qualification (or the willingness to gain one). See the full job description.

In education, a Learning Support Assistant is needed full time in Shepton Mallet to work one-to-one with pupils with SEND, especially Autism. No prior training required—just resilience, a DBS, and a readiness to learn on the job. Read the full listing.

For those looking to step up, Wessex Lodge School is hiring a SENCO in Frome. This full-time permanent role is term-time only and offers the rare benefit of a four-day working week once the school is fully staffed. Apply now.

A local firm in Shepton is also on the hunt for a Senior Finance Assistant, with duties ranging from accruals to month-end reporting. The role is full time, office-based, and comes with private healthcare and 25 days holiday. Check the details.

In the charity sector, a part-time Weekend Supported Housing Worker is needed to support people with complex needs. You'll be working 12 hours a week across four units in Shepton Mallet, supporting residents with housing and care plans. Find out more and apply.

Prefer a role behind the wheel? Gregory Distribution is recruiting a full-time Class 2 Driver in Shepton Mallet. Multi-drop deliveries, regular hours, and a salary between £34–38k await those with the right licence and CPC. See if it's for you.

Over in Castle Cary, there's a Forklift Truck Driver role at a pet food warehouse. It's £13.50 an hour, with overtime paid at time-and-a-half or double on Sundays. It's temporary to start with, but could turn permanent. Check the requirements.

If catering's more your style, there's a Kitchen Assistant role going at a school in Bruton. It's £12.21/hour with regular weekday shifts and one late on Thursdays. You'll need an in-date DBS and some kitchen experience. View the listing.

For those keen to shape the next generation, Supply Education Alliance is on the lookout for Secondary Teachers in Bruton. It's flexible supply teaching work with pay ranging from £130–£200/day. See the details.

And if cheese is your thing, Shepton-based Eurilait is hiring a National Account Executive to join their commercial team. You'll be helping get French and European cheeses onto British shelves. Find out more.

Plenty of options this week—whether you want to manage machines, support people, or sell dairy. Just don't hang about: the good ones go fast.
