How this list works

This ranking is recomputed automatically from CozyJobs' live listing data — no editorial picks, no pay-to-play. Roles with disclosed pay rank first (highest annualized pay at the top), followed by trending and most recently posted roles. Expired or filled listings drop off the moment our link-checking detects them.

Frequently asked questions

Which marketing roles pay the most?+

Head-of and VP marketing roles run $180,000–$300,000+; below the executive tier, growth marketing, product marketing, and performance/paid-media leads are the strongest earners at $130,000–$200,000. Fractional CMO work commonly bills $150–$300 per hour.

Do high-paying marketing jobs require paid-ads experience?+

Not necessarily — paid media is one high-paying track, but product marketing, lifecycle/email, and marketing analytics reach the same bands. What the top of this list consistently rewards is owning a revenue number, not a specific channel.

How is this list ranked and how often does it update?+

Rankings are recomputed automatically from live listing data — disclosed pay first, then trending status and freshness. The list refreshes throughout the day as new listings are ingested and expired ones drop off, so every entry links to a role that is actually open.

Where do CozyJobs listings come from?+

Listings are aggregated daily from employer career sites, major ATS platforms (Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workday, iCIMS, SmartRecruiters, and more), and direct submissions. Automated quality filters remove volunteer/unpaid roles and known aggregator spam, so what surfaces is paid, real work.

Is CozyJobs free to use?+

Browsing and creating an account are free. To unlock full job descriptions, employer names, apply links, and AI-tailored applications, choose a paid plan starting at $25/month — see cozyjobs.ai/pricing.
