As a financial analyst, you are responsible for collecting and analyzing data about major purchases or investments for a company. When your employer or client is about to put a large sum of money into something, they need to be sure that this is a sound investment. You research market trends, risks, and any other factors that might impact the decision and deliver a report and your recommendation. In entry-level roles, you may just deliver the report to a superior and let them make the recommendation based on your findings. Since you do most of your research online, there is no shortage of remote jobs available. Even in an entry-level role, you need a bachelor’s degree in a business-related field.

As an online financial analyst, you need strong analytical skills. You also need communication skills to translate technical data into a readable report. Specific job titles in this field include Remote Financial Analyst, Telecommute Certified Financial Analyst, and Virtual Senior Financial Analyst.
