Remote was co-founded by Job van der Voort, who previously worked as a neuroscientist before becoming the VP of Product at GitLab, the world's largest all-remote company. At GitLab, he experienced firsthand the complexities of hiring and paying a globally distributed team. This challenge inspired the creation of Remote, a platform designed to simplify international employment. The company's mission is to enable companies to hire anyone, anywhere, easily and compliantly.

At the heart of Remote's culture is the belief that everyone should have access to great opportunities, regardless of their location. They strive to provide a first-class employee experience for all, whether colleagues work in the same city or across the globe. Remote emphasizes treating employees right, offering customized benefits packages tailored to each country's laws and norms. They understand that different people value different things and aim to provide benefits that delight employees and ensure compliance. This includes facilitating work-life balance through paid time off and holiday leave, as well as offering healthcare and insurance benefits where available. The company is focused on making global employment accessible and straightforward, removing the legal and financial roadblocks that often hinder international hiring.
