Remote flexibility

Work from home

This is a remote role, but the employee must be based in Italy. It is work from home rather than work from anywhere.

What the employer says

  • Source listing states candidate location: "Milan, Italy, Remote"

What Nomaders makes of it

  • Residency required in Italy
  • Payroll and tax are likely handled in that country only

The quotes above are the employer's own words; the reading is ours. Always check the original listing and employment terms before working from another country.

Before you apply

Questions worth asking: Nomaders interpretation

  • The advert does not say where you can be based. Ask which countries they can legally employ or contract you from.
  • No pay is stated. Ask for the salary range before investing time in interviews.
  • The advert does not say whether this is employment or a contractor arrangement. Ask, as it affects tax and benefits.
