Why Remote Work Is a Great Fit for Military Spouses

In a survey conducted by FlexJobs and Blue Star Families, 32% of military spouses have had to leave a job at least three times because of a military-related move.

At FlexJobs, we love to help military spouses find gainful employment that is remote or flexible. This type of work setup allows military spouses to often take their job with them, wherever they may live, and provides job continuity that can be difficult to achieve otherwise.

Having a remote job can also lead to better work-life balance, financial independence, alleviated child-care issues, and improved mental health. Without the stress of finding a new job with each move, a flexible employer can be the answer to a better work life and personal life.

Here’s how finding a remote job helped these FlexJobs members and military spouses:

“I wanted to find a more flexible job because my husband is in the Air Force. With the unpredictable nature of his job, I wanted something of my own that I could do that wasn’t tied to a specific location. I wasn’t aware that there were some companies that are 100% remote (like mine). Now I know that there are many other opportunities I can take advantage of in the future that fit my needs better than a traditional position.” —Danielle V.

“It can be incredibly difficult to start over in your career each time the Army requires you to relocate. Being able to keep my position throughout (many moves) has enabled me to grow within one organization, which has been wonderful! It’s not just the ability to take my job with me through moves. I’ve also felt like having a remote and flexible position has given me better work-life balance, and helped me to feel more productive and in control of my life!” —Audrey F.
