The best free remote job sites for people in the UK
Good free places to find remote jobs from the UK are Remotejobify, for remote jobs that are open to people in the UK with proof from each listing; LinkedIn, Indeed and Reed, for the most jobs overall; and remote-only boards such as We Work Remotely, Remote OK and Himalayas. All are free to search. The catch is that many “remote” jobs are only open to people in the US, so check where a job is open before you apply.
Where to look, and what each is good for
- Remotejobify lists only remote jobs open to people in the UK, from companies’ own job boards, read every day. Each job shows the line from its listing that proves it. Match me picks the ones that fit your CV.
- LinkedIn has a huge number of jobs and is where many recruiters look for people. Set the location to the United Kingdom and choose Remote, then check each listing.
- Indeed and Reed are big job boards with lots of UK jobs. Search for remote or work from home, and expect hybrid and local jobs mixed in.
- We Work Remotely, Remote OK and Himalayas only list remote jobs, often at startups and tech companies. Many are open to the US only, so read the region on each one.
How Remotejobify is different
Most job sites show you every remote job and leave you to work out which ones you can apply for. Remotejobify works that out first and only shows the jobs open to the country you live in, with the listing’s own words as proof. Browsing is free, with no sign-up.
When another site may suit you better
We read companies’ own job boards, so jobs posted only on a job board won’t be with us. If you want local or hybrid work, or want recruiters to find you, use LinkedIn, Indeed or Reed alongside us. For a fuller comparison with the remote-only boards, see our We Work Remotely alternative guide.

Questions people ask
What is the best free remote job site in the UK?
It depends what you want. LinkedIn and Indeed have the most jobs, but many are hybrid or local. For fully remote jobs that are open to people in the UK, with proof from each listing, Remotejobify lists them by country, free.
Should I pay for a remote job site?
You shouldn’t need to. Most job sites are free for job seekers, and you should never pay an employer to get a job. Some sites, like FlexJobs, charge a membership for extras.
Why can’t I apply to some remote jobs from the UK?
Many remote jobs are only open to people in one country, often the US, for tax, law or time zone reasons. The listing usually says so, in a line like “must be based in the US”.
Where do the jobs on Remotejobify come from?
From companies’ own job boards, which we read every day. There are no paid listings, and every job links straight to the company’s own post.
