Work from home job - Can you please help me find one?

I am looking for a work from home job but I don’t know how to find one. I have A levels but no degree. I’m not really sure what would be available to me, maybe a call centre type job 🤔
I am on Indeed and work from home jobs never seem to come up. Are they like hens teeth to find?
If you have a work from home job, can I ask what you do?

In general the organisation I work for has 10,000 'office based' staff on paper, but another 10,000 in the rest of the org that aren't. I work in IT, though there are plenty of other departments, HR, finance etc.

My base location is home, though I do have a local office location listed on my contract. I've been there 3 times in 2 years and that's only because some other team members were there for the day. The main office location is 3 1/2 hour drive from me and I think I've been there twice! Once on my first day and once for a full team meeting. As a small team we are scattered around the country (9 of us).

WFH jobs are definitely out there.

And what do you mean by flexibility? Because you often find they are not as flexible as you think. The most common home working roles are call centre/ customer support roles. Many civil service roles allow WFH but need to go in 2/3 times a week . What are your skills and experience?

I would be happy to try a call centre / customer support role.
In terms of my skills and experience I have worked for 10 years as a civil servant / admin officer in procurement and finance. I have also worked in the care sector and more recently in supermarket replenishment and picking online shopping orders.

I’ve been an office and facilities manager for years and now stepped over to the finance side of things and payroll - was never work from home until 2020 and then I went hybrid after that - I only go in 2 days (week now - sometimes more depending what’s happening

most people I know build up to more flexibility over time
