TL;DR: For remote project and program manager jobs, start with the PMI Job Board, add Dice for tech contracts, and use boards that show where each employer can hire: Himalayas, Remotive, Working Nomads and Wellfound. On 3 October 2026 our index held 1,077 live remote project manager postings from employers' own careers pages; 37.1% list only the United States and 4.4% say they hire worldwide.
What is different about this search
"Project manager" is one title used in many fields: software, clinical research, construction, marketing. Boards differ by field, so choose the field first, then the title. The same work is posted as project manager, program manager, technical program manager, delivery manager or project coordinator.
It is not product management. A project manager delivers agreed work on time and on budget; a product manager decides what to build (see our job boards for product managers). For skills and certificates, read our guide to remote project manager jobs.

Board by board
PMI Job Board
PMI's job board belongs to the Project Management Institute, the association behind the PMP certificate. Anyone can search it; it listed more than 9,000 jobs of all kinds when we checked in October 2026. The Workplace Type filter has a Remote option, and the Job Function filter separates program manager, PMO manager, project coordinator and junior project manager roles. Some listings are marked "Members Only" and do not show the employer to non-members.
Dice
Dice is a tech job site with a free profile. A search for "project manager" with its Remote filter returned more than 800 results when we checked in October 2026. Many were labeled Contract or Third Party with an hourly rate, and the locations we saw were in the United States.
Wellfound
Wellfound lists startup jobs and says applying is always free for candidates. Its remote project manager page showed more than 600 results when we checked in October 2026. Many listings show salary and equity terms, and a "Remote only" line names where the role is open, such as "Everywhere" or "United States".
Himalayas
Himalayas is free for job seekers. Each listing has a label for where the employer can hire, such as "Poland only" or "United States only", and you can filter by experience level. A paid Plus tier adds resume and interview tools.
Remotive
Remotive has a Project Management category with location, career level and salary filters. Its page counted more than 5,000 openings when we checked in October 2026, but the free view said we were seeing 0.4% of available roles. A paid membership opens the rest.

Idealist
Idealist lists jobs at non-profit and social-impact organizations. Its remote jobs page showed about 400 jobs when we checked in October 2026, each with a place next to the Remote tag, so search it for "program manager" and read that place.
LinkedIn is the volume source. A signed-out search for "remote project manager", location Worldwide, showed more than 35,000 jobs when we checked in October 2026, with city-based roles mixed in. Signed out we saw no workplace filter, so add "remote" and your field to the search words.
Also checked. FlexJobs says every listing is hand-screened, but access needs a paid subscription. We Work Remotely has no project management category, and a search for "project manager" returned only a few listings when we checked in October 2026.
What our index shows for project managers
These figures come from our index of live remote postings that employers published themselves on their own careers pages or hiring systems: 49,544 on 3 October 2026, copies on job boards not counted (see how we check every job). The Project Manager label covers project managers, program managers, technical program managers, delivery managers and project coordinators. "All professions" is the 32,631 postings our index has sorted by profession.
| Measure, 3 October 2026 | Project Manager | All professions |
| Live postings | 1,077 | 32,631 |
| State pay | 37.5% | 42.4% |

| List only the United States | 37.1% | 31.1% |

It is a large field. Project Manager is the fifth-largest profession in our index, with 1,077 live postings on 3 October 2026. Browse the live remote project manager openings.
Most postings name where they hire, often one place. On 3 October 2026 only 18.8% did not say, against 24.8% across all professions. But 37.1% listed only the United States, and 21.8% listed only European countries, the eighth-highest share of the 44 professions with 200 or more postings.
Pay is stated less often. On 3 October 2026, 37.5% stated pay, against 42.4% across all professions (35th of those 44). For ranges, see our project manager salary page.
Counting job boards as well, our index held 2,551 live project manager postings on 3 October 2026, and 1,474 of them (57.8%) were seen only through job boards, against 48.4% across all professions.
Project management is not one market
The most common titles under this label on 3 October 2026 come from different fields: technical project manager (15 postings) and technical program manager (14) in software, feasibility manager (14) and clinical trial manager (12) in clinical research. Employers that had postings under this label on 3 October 2026 included OpenAI (31), Veeva (19), the construction consultancy Turner & Townsend (17) and Stripe (12).
So search a field word plus the title, such as "clinical project manager" or "construction project manager", and repeat it with each title variant. Operations roles overlap with project work; see our job boards for operations roles.
Contract roles and what they mean
On 3 October 2026, 733 of the 1,077 postings stated an employment type; 92 of those (about one in eight) were contractor roles and 15 temporary. That is a floor, because 344 postings stated no type, and two of the three most common titles say "(remote, contract)".
Outside the employer's country, a contract usually means you invoice the company and handle your own tax, leave and equipment. It is often how a company with no legal entity in your country can work with you. Compare the two in our guide to contractor and employee remote jobs. For freelance work, Toptal runs a network that includes project managers and says fewer than 3% of applicants are accepted. A real employer never asks you to pay to apply, for training or for equipment.
Where these roles can hire
The table counts postings that say they hire worldwide or whose list includes the country. Postings that say nothing are not counted.
| Say they can hire in, 3 October 2026 | Project Manager postings | Share of 1,077 | All professions |
| United States | 500 | 46.4% | 40.0% |

| Mexico | 103 | 9.6% | 8.4% |

| India | 68 | 6.3% | 6.8% |
| Philippines | 62 | 5.8% | 5.9% |
| Nigeria | 61 | 5.7% | 6.0% |
Poland, Mexico and Brazil are above the share for all professions; India, the Philippines and Nigeria are slightly below. The 37.1% that list only the United States are closed to you if you live elsewhere: see what "remote, US only" means. Our India page lists postings that say they can hire there.
Level: few junior openings
Only 54 postings (5.0%) were junior or internship level on 3 October 2026, against 8.2% across all professions. Early in your career, also search "project coordinator" (5 postings) and "project support specialist" (10).
Where RemoteHunt fits
RemoteHunt is not a board you post on. It reads live remote postings from employers' own careers pages and job boards, checks where each one says it can hire, and scores the ones that can hire you from 0 to 100 against your resume, with a written reason. If you have no resume, it builds one with you. It is free to start and you never pay to apply. The 90-day pass ($29 once, no renewal, 14-day refund) opens the company and apply link on every match.
