Remote Contract Jobs

What’s on this page

Every remote contract role on 101 Careers in one pool — matched on employment type, so every listing here is a contract engagement rather than a permanent seat. Contract remote work comes in two main flavours, and the tax shape differs sharply. In the United States, most contracts are 1099: you invoice as an independent business, pay your own self-employment tax, cover your own insurance, and can work for several clients at once — freedom and paperwork in equal measure. W2 contracts sit in between: an agency or employer of record handles withholding and benefits while you work a single engagement, trading a slice of the rate for a lot of admin you don't do. Outside the US the same split exists under other names — umbrella companies in the UK, EOR platforms everywhere — and the listings here span all of them. Contract-to-perm is the well-trodden middle path: you start on a fixed term, both sides take a working interview, and conversion to permanent is usually on the table if you ask early. On rates: compare day rates and hourly rates against salary honestly. A rough rule for a full-time schedule is annual salary ≈ day rate × 220, minus the unrecovered vacation, gaps between contracts, and self-employed tax you now carry. 2 publish a rate or salary range up front. The 149 roles below are sorted newest first, sourced mostly from employer ATS boards, and applications always go direct — no account, no middleman, no fee.
