According to a recent study, temporary employment, sometimes referred to as side jobs or side hustles, will grow to more than 3.2 million jobs by 2025—an increase of 8.5 percent from 2019. To highlight the variety of these types of jobs available to professionals, FlexJobs has compiled a list of 21 flexible high-paying, flexible side jobs that can be done in addition to one’s full-time job.
“Paying down debt, covering bills, saving for a vacation, paying for student loans, exploring a new career, adding to retirement accounts, wanting new experiences -- there are many reasons that people seek outside gigs. But one common denominator among them is that they want to make the side gig worth their time,” said Sara Sutton, CEO of FlexJobs. “A flexible, higher-paying side job can make a financial impact, which is especially appealing to help alleviate the pressure many of us feel during the cash-strapped holiday season,” Sutton concluded.
A side gig or side hustle—once known as moonlighting—typically refers to a job that can be done while also working a full-time job or meeting other primary daily responsibilities. This list of 21 higher-paying side jobs are excellent options for earning supplemental income and offer work flexibility like the option to work remotely, freelance, part-time, and on an alternative schedule. The hourly pay rates listed below are based on real salaries from jobs posted on FlexJobs.
1. Bookkeeper
2. Career Coach
3. Consultant
4. Copy Editor
12. Photographer
13. Project Manager
15. Recruiter
