Civil service apprenticeships?

How about a job in a contact centre (aka call centre)? There are still many of them in the UK and they are not all sales oriented The work can be pretty structured so might alleviate the self organisation challenge. I know lots of people who started their working life in a contact centre and then developed their careers further over time. I think the most important thing is to get started in a role and then work from there. Fingers crossed for your DD.
