Management? It might even let you stick around at your current place of employment while meaning that the ever changing tech stuff wouldn't be your problem anymore. The techs under you will appreciate your experience, and you can spend a lot more time sitting in meetings, working with spreadsheets, and dealing with employee/scheduling issues.
If you think this might be a temp situation, why not just take a leave of absence and get whatever job pays the bills for a few months. Keeps the door open to come back at least.
I suppose it depends on what the old job entails. Management can be a lot more relaxing for coders dealing with burnout, those with a lot of metrics to meet day to day, or anyone in a customer facing role.

Management is stress. The last thing this man should get into is management.
