5 Remote Job Boards That Take Salary Transparency Seriously

I've never understood why so many job listings describe every possible responsibility but leave out the salary. You can spend half an hour reading about a role only to find out later that the pay is nowhere near what you're looking for.

If you prefer knowing the numbers before applying, these five remote job boards are worth checking out.

1. Jobicy

Jobicy lists remote jobs in software development, design, marketing, customer support, and other fields.

There's an "Only with salaries" checkbox in the search filters. Turn it on, and you'll see listings that include compensation details. You can also check the salary guide to get a better idea of what different remote roles pay.

2. We Work Remotely

One of the older remote job boards, with listings from companies hiring internationally.

The search page includes a salary range filter alongside country, region, and skill filters. Not every employer provides compensation details, but you can narrow your search to jobs that do.

3. Remotive

Remotive has a useful minimum salary filter. Enter your expected annual salary in USD, and the results will include jobs with advertised pay at or above that amount.

It's particularly handy when you're browsing positions across several industries.

4. Wellfound

If you're interested in startups, Wellfound is worth a look.

Job listings often include salary ranges and equity details. Seeing both numbers is useful, especially when comparing offers from early-stage companies where stock options may be part of the package.

5. Working Nomads

Working Nomads has a dedicated section for browsing jobs by salary.

You can jump straight into categories like $80K+, $100K+, or $150K+ rather than scrolling through unrelated listings.

It's a small feature, but it saves time.

One Last Thing

None of these sites guarantees that every listing will have a salary attached. The difference is that they give you ways to find the ones that do.

And that's something I'd like to see on every job board.

If an employer knows what they're willing to pay, why not put it in the job description?
