I don’t mean the specific company or anything in detail but I’m looking to change career path and want to find some inspiration. I currently work in retail management and have a business degree but looking to find a job I can work from home. Any advice or suggestions are appreciated x

I'm a software developer and work remotely. It's not possible at the moment but the plan over the next few years is to become a digital nomad

Was in Risk / Fraud detection but recently quit that job. That was two days work from home, three in the office.

In March I will be working for the Government, this role is three days from home, 9-5 but I can bank hours as well. I feel this will be better for my family life.

My advice go on to the Civil Service website, took me over 6 months before a start date though. The Government recruitment takes time.

Project manager, wfh full time for 10yrs now.

My advice would be to focus on international companies. My experience has been you generally need to move into roles within the company to find roles which are wfh orientated. New hires are challenges to train/manage.

Hey OP, what skills do you have? It’s often the case that skills can be transferable into unexpected industries or work streams.

Do you have a burning desire to pursue anything in particular?

IT Security Consultant. Fully remote but the very occasional day in the office (4 days since Feb 2020).

Theres a definite shift away from home working post Covid though.

Depending on your skills, I've seen quite a few fully remote call centre jobs recently.
