Best Remote Accounting Jobs for 2026

Remote bookkeepers typically earn $45,000–$60,000; staff accountants $60,000–$80,000; senior accountants and controllers $90,000–$150,000+. CPA licensure adds a meaningful premium at every level.

Bookkeeping and staff accountant roles usually don't — a degree or equivalent experience with QuickBooks/NetSuite is enough. Controller, audit, and senior reporting roles typically expect a CPA or progress toward one.

Rankings are recomputed automatically from live listing data — disclosed pay first, then trending status and freshness. The list refreshes throughout the day as new listings are ingested and expired ones drop off, so every entry links to a role that is actually open.

Listings are aggregated daily from employer career sites, hiring platforms and agencies, plus direct submissions from companies. Automated quality filters remove volunteer/unpaid roles and known aggregator spam, and our curators investigate listings readers report. We can't verify every employer, so check that a role is posted on the employer's own site before you share personal details.
