Looking for remote work in 2025?
Here are 18 proven job sites (from FlexJobs to Upwork), data-backed tips to win remote roles, and a CTA tailored for pastors, church staff and digital consultants ready to scale online.
Remote work isn’t a temporary trend — it’s now part of the global jobs market. In the U.S. alone roughly 22–23% of workers were working remotely in early 2025, and hybrid/remote roles remain a top job-seeker preference.
Below you’ll find a curated, practical list of 18 remote-job websites (best for full-time, part-time, freelance and startup roles), short notes on who they’re best for, quick tips to stand out, and a closing CTA for ministry leaders and digital consultants who want help converting remote opportunities into steady income.
Quick tips before you apply
Tailor your resume to remote work: highlight asynchronous communication, independent project outcomes, and tools (Slack, Zoom, Asana). Build a remote-ready portfolio or one-page site showcasing results (web traffic growth, fundraising campaigns, online course completion rates). Use job-alerts + set browser filters to avoid scams (verify company domain & LinkedIn). Apply early — many remote roles are filled within days. (These strategies reflect how hiring today favors clarity, results, and remote-process fit.)
