Remote Accounting Jobs
20 roles · top end $290K · 8 of 20 in Payroll
Payroll dominates this send - eight of twenty roles, more than any other category. Tax is slim by count (two roles) but punches hard on comp: Dow and Veralto together bracket $135K-$290K, which is worth noting when the median top-end across all 20 roles is $90,500. The Dow posting in particular carries real context - they are actively restructuring and the tax function at a company working through 4,500 job cuts, European asset shutdowns, and multi-year EBITDA targets has a full plate.

SPOTLIGHT
Veralto
Manager, Global Tax Strategy
🌐 Remote - US · $135K-155K
Veralto (NYSE: VLTO) completed the acquisition of In-Situ in late January 2026, expanding its water analytics portfolio, and simultaneously established a $750M share repurchase program and raised its dividend 18%. A global tax strategy hire shortly after a bolt-on acquisition and new capital return program is a recognizable sequencing.
SPOTLIGHT
Dow Chemical
Expert Tax Counsel
🌐 Remote - US · $230K-290K
Dow's 'Transform to Outperform' restructuring - announced January 2026 - targets 4,500 job cuts and at least $2 billion in annual EBITDA improvement by 2028, on top of European facility shutdowns and significant asset write-downs. Hiring senior tax counsel while executing that volume of restructuring charges, severance programs, and cross-border asset exits is not a routine backfill.
| Operational Accounting (6) | up to $243K |
McLenehan and Associates Chartered Professional Accountants
Bookkeeper - 4-Day Work Week
🌐 Remote - Canada · CAD $50K-60K
Nationwide Mutual Insurance

🌐 Remote - US · $138K-243K
| Accounts Receivable (1) | up to $100K |
| Payroll (8) | up to $149K |
Eight roles across the full payroll spectrum - from a $57K consultant to a $149K city-government administrator. Four of the eight explicitly involve implementation or global scope, which skews this batch toward the more technical end of the category.
SPOTLIGHT
Flexcar
Benefits Payroll Manager
🌐 Remote - US · $115K-130K
Flexcar opened its Dallas hub on September 9, 2026 - its latest in a string of new-market launches that has also included New York, Atlanta, and California in the past six months. Multi-state expansion at this pace generates real payroll and benefits complexity across new jurisdictions, which makes this hire a functional response to growth rather than a replacement.
