Which sales jobs are open
- Account Executive titles: 500 roles, the biggest single group.
- SDR / BDR (sales or business development rep): 143 roles, the usual way in.
- Senior, lead, head-of and director titles: 158. Junior or associate titles: only 11.
If you’re starting out, SDR roles are your pool. Titles marked junior are rare, so don’t filter on that word.
What remote sales jobs pay
Only 125 of the 936 ads publish a salary. Medians of the advertised ranges (base, not OTE, where the ad separates them):
| Currency | Ads with pay | Median range |
|---|---|---|
| GBP | 32 | £62,000 to £80,600 |
| EUR | 30 | €90,000 to €112,500 |
| USD (often UK and Europe roles paid in dollars) | 54 | $108,400 to $174,000 |
Small samples, so treat these as a guide. Commission usually sits on top.

Most active employers that day: GitLab (35 roles), Alan (31), ElevenLabs (29), Wing Assistant (26), Grafana Labs (23), Canonical (18), Hire Hangar (18), StackAdapt (17), Camunda (16) and Zscaler (16).
Where you need to live
Almost half (462) of the roles don’t name one country; they’re open across a region such as EMEA or Europe. Of those that do name one, the UK leads with 169, then Germany 86, France 33, Spain 25, Ireland 20, the Netherlands 19 and Sweden 18. 138 roles say worldwide or anywhere.
Every Remote1st listing shows where the employer can legally hire from, with the line from the ad that says so, so you can skip the ones that are really US-only.
How to get hired faster
- Apply in the first few days. With 583 new roles a week, the older ads fill first.
- Lead with numbers: quota attainment, pipeline generated, deal size.
- Check the country line before you apply. “EMEA” does not always mean every EMEA country.
