The only one I can find at a recognized school, and it is a DBA, not a Ph.D., is at Aston University. One website I looked at mentioned Open University, but their own website describes their program as a full-time onsite program. This is something I've been looking at too, since I am Dean at a business school at which several of my full-time faculty are interested in pursuing a Ph.D. and, if they do one, want a quality program, but cannot take the time away from work to do a traditional program. I should warn you that the distance programs will only benefit you if you are already employed and want to remain with your current employer. Other than in accounting, for which there is such a shortage that schools are desperate and would be willing to hire almost anyone with any sort of doctorate, most schools just don't hire faculty from the current distance learning programs, because they just aren't of equivalent quality to most of the traditional programs. The mentorship required for a research degree just doesn't translate well to that format.
