For those who aspire to enjoy maximum freedom and flexibility in their work, a “work-from-anywhere job” may be the ideal choice. This type of job allows employees to work remotely without being tied to a fixed location.
One platform that specializes in helping individuals find remote, hybrid, and flexible jobs is FlexJobs. By analyzing the highest number of “work-from-anywhere” job postings from January to April 2025 in their database, the platform has identified the most popular job fields for remote work positions recruited so far this year.
If you are looking to tailor your work to fit the lifestyle you desire, consider exploring the career directions recommended by FlexJobs.
Here are the top ten job fields currently recruiting for “work-from-anywhere” positions:
1. Computer & IT
2. Project Management
3. Marketing
4. Operations
5. Customer Service
6. Communications
7. Accounting & Finance
8. Sales
9. Business Development
10. Writing
While customer manager, content writer, and data analyst were the most popular “work-from-anywhere” positions last year, this year’s top three popular positions are customer service manager, administrative assistant, and data scientist.
However, Keith Spencer, a career expert at FlexJobs, mentioned that compared to traditional remote positions, these roles often require more experience.
According to data from FlexJobs, only 3% of the “work-from-anywhere” positions posted in 2025 so far are entry-level. The majority of these positions require a certain level of experience: 76% are classified as “experienced level,” 13% as managerial level, and 8% as senior managerial level.
Spencer emphasized that critical skills such as time management, communication, problem-solving, and critical thinking are essential if you want to secure these positions.
Technical expertise is equally crucial. Given that many teams collaborate asynchronously, employees must be able to troubleshoot technical issues on their own.
