Every open vp of people role we track is on this page - nothing is held back behind a sign-up. The city chips read the employer’s own location line; a listing that names no city we can resolve stays searchable but sits out of them.
Open to remote only? 1 of the 12 vp of people listings that publish a work model came back remote-first, and 5 more are hybrid. The other 8 say nothing either way - that field is one only some boards publish.

What 6 of these listings actually printed.
Every figure here comes from a live posting with a stated annual base range. Nothing is modelled, inferred, or averaged in from a survey - which is also why the sample is smaller than the board.

About VP of People roles
The current market for VP of People roles shows a modest but active hiring landscape, based on available data. There are currently 19 open positions across 18 hiring companies, indicating that most employers in this space are seeking a single VP of People hire rather than multiple candidates for the same function. Four new roles were posted in the past week, suggesting a steady, if measured, pace of new opportunities entering the market rather than a surge of activity. Compensation data drawn from posted listings shows a median salary of $268,750, with a 25th percentile of $225,625 and a 75th percentile of $330,625. This spread indicates meaningful variation in how the role is compensated depending on factors such as company size, industry, and seniority expectations, though specific drivers of this variation are not detailed in the available data. Companies currently listed among the top hirers for this role include Ajaib, Icarus, McGill University, Assembly, and Botify, representing a mix of organizational types from technology and finance to higher education and professional services. This diversity suggests that the VP of People function is being sought across varied sectors rather than concentrated in a single industry vertical. With 19 open roles spread across 18 companies, the market appears to offer a reasonably focused set of opportunities for qualified candidates, though the relatively small number of total postings suggests this is a specialized, senior-level role rather than a high-volume hiring category. Candidates and employers alike should view these figures as a current snapshot rather than a long-term trend indicator, given the limited historical context provided.
