What could be better than answering emails with a view of the ocean in front of you?
Or filling in spreadsheets against the landscape of, perhaps, the hills of Tuscany?
And what about taking calls and meetings from the beaches of Portugal?
Since the Covid-19 pandemic, demand for remote work has soared, with people seeking a better work-life balance – and, in some cases, the chance to live in sunnier cities.
Indeed, the number of digital nomads – remote workers who use technology and the internet to work from anywhere in the world – has risen greatly.
A new report by Public First estimates that around 165,000 UK nationals are now classified as digital nomads, living overseas for about seven months per year.
While this was once a dream reserved for mainly freelancers and entrepreneurs, nowadays it is becoming much more of a reality.
Thanks to a growing number of employers offering ‘Work From Anywhere’ (WFA) schemes, employees at certain companies can work remotely from anywhere in the world for a set number of days each year.

According to work experts Flexa, early half (44 per cent) of jobs posted on their site between the beginning of April 2025 and the end of June 2025 were from companies offering ‘Work From Anywhere’ schemes, up from 36 per cent in the same period last year.
And job seekers are receptive, with nearly three quarters (72 per cent) of them preferring roles offering ‘Work From Anywhere’ schemes in August 2025.
What’s more, Flexa have rounded up some of the companies that let you work from anywhere – and there are plenty of recognisable names.
The first is Vodafone.
Connecting more than 300 million customers worldwide, the telecoms giant knows the benefits of going global. Vodafone’s UK staff get 20 days per year to work from anywhere.
The company has a hybrid working setup, great opportunities for learning and development, and benefits such as mental health support and ‘early finish Fridays’.
Next on the list is TUI – the company’s ‘TUI WORKWIDE’ scheme means employees can spend up to 30 days a year working from anywhere in the world. Since its introduction in 2021, staff have spent more than 4,500 days working abroad. That’s alongside enjoying perks like enhanced sick pay, health insurance and employee discounts on travel all year round.
And hybrid hairbrush brand Tangle Teezer lets staff work from anywhere in the world for up to 10 days a year. The team also has access to a whole host of benefits, including ‘early finish Fridays’, women’s health leave, and in-office massages.
