What the data says

Four things the listings tell us

There are 2,201 open marketing roles across 584 companies on LandEarly right now, with 305 posted in the past week. Senior-level roles make up 41% of the openings, and 45% of roles that specify a work model are fully remote.

13%

Product Marketing Manager leads the field

Product Marketing Manager is the most in-demand marketing role (292 open, 13% of the field), followed by Marketing Manager (272).

41%

Weighted toward senior experience

41% of open marketing roles read as senior-level. Entry-level (intern + junior) roles are 7% - a signal of how open this field is to early-career candidates.

45%

A remote-friendly field

Of marketing roles that specify a work model, 45% are fully remote and 30% are hybrid. (Many listings don't declare one - this is the share among those that do.)

Where the demand is

One field, 23 different jobs

“Marketing” is a bucket, not a job. It rolls up 23 titles that share a craft but not a day - different scope, different level, different pay band. Which title you're chasing is the first cut worth making.

Read off each posting at ingest, not a field employers fill in - so this is a share of all 2,199 open roles, with nothing left out.

Freshness

What’s open, by the week it posted

How old the live marketing pipeline is - the window where applying early still puts you in front of a human instead of a stack.

Aug 3This week
+305

marketing roles posted in the last seven days, across 584 employers - 14% of everything open in the field.

Each bar is the open roles posted that week, not a count of everything posted then: roles that have since closed are gone from it, so older weeks read lighter by design. The window starts when we began ingesting marketing listings, because a week-by-week series that ran further back would measure our board coverage rather than the market. 14 listings carry no posting date and sit out of this chart.

Pay, where disclosed

Base salary, from listings that state one

Base only. Bonus, commission and equity are real money but listings describe them too inconsistently to compare, so they stay out of the maths rather than inflate it.

What the number is

Computed from the 639 open marketing listings that state an annual base range - one midpoint per listing. The other 1,562 state none, and are not estimated in.

Employers write locations as free text, so every spelling of a city is resolved to one market before it’s counted. A listing naming several markets counts in each, so these don’t sum to the field. The 1,313 that name no city - remote, “Hybrid”, a campus or a building - sit out entirely rather than get attributed to one.

Methodology

How we compute this

Short version: we count listings, we don't model them. Where the data is thin, the page says so instead of guessing.

Counted, not estimated

Every figure comes from the 2,201 active marketing listings we track across 15 applicant-tracking systems, ingested hourly from public job boards. A role that closes this morning drops out this afternoon.

Shares state their own denominator

Work-model percentages cover only the 1,208 listings that declare one. Experience level is read off every posting at ingest, so those shares cover the whole field. We’d rather show the smaller base than fill the gap.

A field rolls up related titles

Marketing covers Product Marketing Manager, Marketing Manager, Growth Marketing Manager and 20 more titles. A posting joins a title when its own text describes that job - the roll-up is on the classified role, never on a keyword in the headline.

FAQ

Common questions

How many marketing jobs are open right now?

2,201 as of October 2026, across 584 companies, with 305 posted in the last seven days. The count is recomputed every hour and roles that close drop out the same day.

Which marketing roles are most in demand?

Product Marketing Manager (292 open), Marketing Manager (272 open), and Growth Marketing Manager (203 open) - out of 23 marketing titles carrying at least one open role today.

Are marketing jobs remote?

Of the 1,208 marketing listings that declare a work model, 45% are fully remote, 30% hybrid and 25% on-site. Most listings never say, so this is the share among those that do - not of the whole field.

What does a marketing job pay?

Median disclosed base is $156k, with the middle 50% between $118k and $187k. That is base only, computed from the 639 open marketing listings that state an annual range - bonus, commission and equity are excluded because listings describe them too inconsistently to compare.

What experience level are marketing jobs?

41% of open marketing roles read as senior-level, and 7% are entry-level (intern or junior). The level is read off each posting when we ingest it, so every open role is counted here.
