Remote Accounting Jobs
20 roles · top end $335K · 5 of 20 in Payroll
Nine of today's 20 roles sit in just two categories - payroll and tax - which makes this a fairly concentrated send for operational and compliance-side candidates. The salary spread is wide: bottom of the range is $46,051, but the top end hits $335K on the PwC Senior Manager role, with a median top-end of $104,950. Mercury, Akamai, and Nestle each have context worth reading before you apply - see the spotlights below.

Nestlé
IT Finance Controller
🌐 Remote - US · $111.8K-160.7K
Nestle announced 16,000 global job cuts in October 2025, with 12,000 of them white-collar positions driven by automation and shared-service consolidation - an IT Finance Controller hire in that environment is a meaningful signal about which finance functions the company is keeping in-house.
Four tax roles with a ceiling of $335K on the PwC Senior Manager posting; three of the four target mid-to-senior experience, with the Sensiba intern role the only entry-level option.

Akamai
Manager Tax
🌐 Remote - US · $108.6K-195.4K
Akamai took a $55M restructuring charge in Q4 2025, cutting headcount and sunsetting product lines to realign investments - filing a tax manager search in the middle of that cleanup suggests the function is being rebuilt rather than wound down.

Mercury closed a $200M Series D at a $5.2B valuation in May 2026, and in April received conditional OCC approval to become a federally chartered bank - a structural shift that puts new pressure on its internal procurement and finance functions as it builds out the controls required for that charter.
