Remote jobs open to people in the UK: what the adverts say
The short answer
On 2026-10-09, 1,690 open jobs tracked by Nomaders, from 323 employers, named the UK as a place you can work from. The largest group is region restricted (38%). Separately, 181 roles say you can work from any country, and 574 name a wider region such as Europe without naming the UK. Those two groups are not in the confirmed count.
Three groups, counted separately
| Group | Jobs |
|---|---|
| Advert names the UK Confirmed geography. Includes hybrid and office-linked roles. | 1,690 |
| Advert says any country Geographically compatible; other conditions may still apply. | 181 |
| Advert names a wider region only Provisional. Europe-wide wording often means the EU, which excludes the UK; treat as unconfirmed. | 574 |
A further 1 listed for the UK are left out of every count above: the listing names the UK, but the advert describes a wider area and never names the UK. Those jobs stay on the site with that uncertainty explained.
the UK only, or alongside other countries
1,078 of the confirmed roles (64%) name the UK as the only allowed country. The rest also name other countries, most often Germany (236), United States (220), Spain (216).
A role listing several countries usually means the employer can hire in each of them, not that you may move between them.

Pay and other requirements
373 of the 1,690 confirmed roles (22%) state pay.
| Currency | Yearly adverts | Median of range midpoints |
|---|---|---|
| GBP | 39 | 95,000 |
Only yearly figures in the advert's own currency, only currencies with 30 or more adverts. Not converted, and not what people actually earn.
We no longer report how many adverts mention working hours or time zones. A check of the matched sentences on 9 October 2026 found most matches were incidental (for example "teams across time zones" or "flexible working hours"), so the figure was not reliable.
What this means if you live in the UK
- Start with the roles that name the UK; they are the only ones where the employer has said so.
- A matching location is not full eligibility. Right to work, employment set-up, tax and other conditions may still apply.
- A remote job based in the UK does not mean you may relocate or work from abroad. Ask before assuming.
- For region-only roles, ask the employer whether they can hire in the UK before you apply.

Method and limitations
- Sample: open, de-duplicated jobs Nomaders tracks on the snapshot date. Not the whole job market, and a new source can change totals.
- Confirmed means the UK is recorded as an allowed country for the role, based on the advert and the listing's location field.
- Region-only roles are never added to the confirmed count. The UK is never assumed to be inside an EU-only role, and neither the US nor Canada is assumed from North America-wide wording.
- Language figures come from simple text matching and may miss or over-count unusual wording.
- Figures are recalculated hourly; earlier days are not stored for this report yet, so no trend is claimed.
