As remote work continues to reshape the employment landscape, FlexJobs® has unveiled its much-anticipated list of the Top 75 Companies to Watch for Remote Jobs this summer. Based on analysis of over 60,000 companies and job postings between January and May 2025, this ranking identifies the employers offering the most professional-level remote opportunities heading into the latter half of the year.
Who’s Leading the Remote Hiring Charge?
Topping the list is UnitedHealth Group, followed closely by defense giant Lockheed Martin and healthcare leader Elevance Health. These companies exemplify the growing demand for remote roles across diverse sectors — from healthcare and IT to finance and customer service.
Other notable employers in the top 10 include Huntington National Bank, General Dynamics, and Fidelity Investments, signaling that both traditional industries and cutting-edge sectors are investing heavily in flexible work models.
Remote Work Isn’t Just for Tech Anymore
