officeless
Lacking designated workplace
Officeless describes being without an office—either lacking a physical workspace or not holding an official position.
Someone working remotely might be officeless by choice: She's been happily officeless since the company went fully remote.
In political contexts, it describes someone who has lost or lacks a position of authority: The officeless former mayor still wielded influence.
