The jobs nobody wants to do – but pay £55k and you don’t need a degree

SOME of the most unpopular jobs in the UK come with a fat salary each month and you don’t need a degree either.

Less interest for the roles means job searchers are likely to have more success because there are fewer rivals for each opening.

All of these unpopular jobs don’t require a degree

Many of the most unpopular jobs pay more than the average advertised salary of £37,697, data from career search engine Adzuna showed.

The site looked at more than one million vacancies to find which openings had the lowest interest from job hunters and found 20 don’t require a degree.

Many of the roles could be great options for workers in similar industries or looking for a career change, according to Adzuna.

And top of the list is a tax specialist where workers can earn a tidy £55,000.

As the name suggests, you will need some training to work in the role, but you can start as an apprentice – and going to university isn’t a requirement.

Tax is an area that puts many off but workers who get their head around the numbers could find it’s more interesting than many assume.

The apprenticeship route is also one way to become an audit specialist, who can earn a salary that tops £44,000.

Or you could earn around £50,000 working as either a buildings or quantity surveyor – both positions are open to learning on the job through apprentice schemes.

You can also expect to earn at least £33,000 as a lettings manager or sales negotiator and no formal qualifications are required to apply for these roles.

If you prefer the sound of a hands-on job, training while working can kickstart a career as a gas or air conditioning engineer.

Andrew Hunter, co-founder of Adzuna, says: “Jobseekers are placing more priority on culture, values and work life balance.

“Even if a job offers a tempting pay cheque, if it doesn’t provide a sustainable working environment, flexibility and room to grow, jobseekers are looking elsewhere.

“This has led to worsening skills shortages in areas like property jobs, healthcare and nursing, and education and childcare.

“But it also creates an opportunity for job seekers.

“These are also the jobs with the lowest competition for roles, meaning they could be great options for those looking for fast career progression, strong salaries, and increased job security.”
