What sort of job could my disabled DH do?

[Skulldrudgery]

He is educated (in the arts) to Masters level. He used to teach in his subject but found teaching too stressful.
He has an illness that causes him to be very tired and in physical pain if he has to walk even short distances.
If he gets overtired he gets ‘brain fog’ and can overlook small details and so a safety critical job wouldn’t suit.
Because of brain fog he’s quite disorganised. A fast paced job requiring accuracy wouldn’t suit.
He’s good with people - customer facing would be fine.
Remote working would be ideal because he can’t drive due to disability and public transport commuting causes fatigue.
He is willing to retrain and/or go to college to do so.
Any ideas? All I can come up with is telephone customer support from home - which he doesn’t want to do and I don’t blame him.

I know you said teaching is too stressful but could he do one to one tutoring? I have a very similar condition to your DH by the sounds of it and online tutoring is very lucrative, I can set my own hours, and I can do it from the sofa.

Procurement / supply chain?
(Although it's quite stressful at the moment- thanks Brexit!)
Online teaching tutoring?

if he retrained in psychology / counselling, then there would be online work in that area. I think he would need a one year conversion course and then an MSc.

Another option is to become a 'consultant' in your area of expertise. If he has knowledge in the right domain and can market his skills, then that can be interesting. I know someone who works part-time for Deloitte - each job is 6-8 weeks writing a report on a specific topic (all remote) and then when she is done she can take a break and pick up another report when she has time.

Transcribing

Teaching art/tutoring

On line!

How about a project for the arts council? My friend writes plays and types up interviews and transcripts and organises plays and workshops etc

Writing textbooks in his field/ creating materials for teachers

Working as an educational advisor for the arts curriculum

Alternatively something sitting down, perhaps an office role.

Employers have to be fair with disabilities and most offer (I know we do at the nhs) interviews to those who are disabled but meet all essential criteria online with out policies

There's a lady on my team who's disabled and she works as a receptionist In one of our clinics and she's great. She works part time, never on her own and is able to claim PIP too and it gives her some sense of purpose which is important.
