CEO Statement on the Best Remote Companies for Women

Laura Spawn, Virtual Vocations CEO and Co-founder

“Fifteen years ago, I launched Virtual Vocations as a mom to three young children. I sought the same professional and personal freedom even more women seek today. Over the years, my vision became a mission: to provide a platform for remote jobseekers to safely conduct legitimate, flexible job searches.

Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have witnessed a strong increase in the number of jobseekers who want to live and work on their own terms. They strive to find jobs that will not only support themselves and their families but also fuel their lives with purpose. The companies on our list of the Best Remote Companies for Women in 2022 are a good starting point for women who want to work from home and find jobs that reflect their values, whether they want to focus on their careers, families, personal fulfillment, or all of the above. Women do not have to choose between the professional and the personal. With remote work, women can design their own futures.”
