41 Companies That Allow Remote Work in Estonia 🇪🇪

41 Companies That Allow Remote Work in Estonia 🇪🇪

There’s no denying that remote work in Estonia is getting more and more popular. Furthermore, there’s plenty of data that shows the positives of remote work far outweigh the negatives. A lot of people have already gone freelance full time, so remote work is definitely what talent wants and needs. This option of course does not offer job security, so there’s pros and cons to both sides.

With that in mind, we’ve compiled a list of  hottest companies all over remote work in Estonia. Working remotely can mean a lot of different things to different people, so, we’ve highlighted the different types of remote work opportunities on offer as well as what kind of remote working tools they’ll set you up with.

 

I’ve split them into groups:

Software Development Houses

Miscellaneous

Public Sector

Startups

 

Development Houses

These are the companies that will build stuff for you when you are lacking an in-house team. And oh boy, does Estonia know how to do software development. These development powerhouses are happy to offer remote work in Estonia and also in some cases overseas.

Remote Work in Estonia

 

Here was a summary of companies that offer part-time or full-time remote work in Estonia on MeetFrank. Most companies understand the benefits of remote work and I would say the ones that have really put the most thought into the processes in remote work in Estonia is the public sector. They’ve truly approached it with strategy, figured out what are the needs and the pain points and made it work.

Startups unsurprisingly, also welcome remote work in Estonia with open arms. In an interconnected world it doesn’t really matter where the work is done, of course there are many fields where this simply isn’t possible. If you have to build a space rocket, you’re most likely not gonna be doing it at home. For the foreseeable future anyways.

If your tools for work are a laptop and internet connection, why not do this from the beach, at home or from the summerhouse during the holiday season. Remote work in Estonia definitely is a growing trend and I expect more and more companies to adopt it.

With an increasing demand for talent, salaries in Estonia are also growing fast. Plenty of jobs in Estonia remain to be filled.

 

What is MeetFrank Anyways?

 

MeetFrank is a recruitment app. Built for you, the talent first. We match you with the companies that are looking for someone with your skillset, rather than becoming just a CV in a pile of thousands.

Whether you’re looking for remote work in Estonia, relocation or a steady 9-5 in the office, have a look what’s out there!
