“The pandemic has really encouraged companies to reconsider the types of jobs that can be done from home and reevaluate what positions are actually compatible with remote work,” said Sara Sutton, Founder and CEO of FlexJobs.
BOULDER, Colo. (PRWEB) November 09, 2020
As the U.S. enters its ninth month of the pandemic, employers and workers continue to adjust to and experience the benefits of the remote workplace. In fact, according to FlexJobs’ 9th Annual Super Survey, 65 percent of workers would prefer to work remotely full-time post-pandemic, while 31 percent would like a hybrid arrangement that combines both home and in-office work. As a result of both increased employee demand and more accepting attitudes from employers around remote work, it is likely that the variety of jobs that can be performed remotely will continue to grow. To demonstrate the range of jobs that are compatible with remote work, FlexJobs has rounded up 50 of the most surprising remote job titles of 2020.
“The pandemic has really encouraged companies to reconsider the types of jobs that can be done from home and reevaluate what positions are actually compatible with remote work,” said Sara Sutton, Founder and CEO of FlexJobs. “As everyone broadens their views of the workplace, I fully anticipate we will continue to see a growing variety in remote job titles into 2021,” Sutton concluded.
The fifty remote jobs below are either active postings or were active at some point during 2020 and can be done from home. These positions range from entry-level to senior-level and span across a wide range of industries. More surprising jobs can be found in the FlexJobs database.
