Registered Nurse job postings: what employers ask for (2026)

This page reads every active posting whose normalized title is Registered Nurse across the ten boards JobsPipe collects and reports what those employers ask for: the seniority they target, whether the role is remote, whether pay is disclosed, the skills named in the text, and the industries, countries and company sizes behind the postings.

<0.5% of these postings are marked remote, 42.7% state a salary or range, the most common seniority label is lead or manager at 1.1%. Postings with no seniority label are counted in the denominator, so the seniority shares do not sum to one.

Who the postings are aimed at

Seniority is read from the posting’s own label where one exists. Postings without a label stay in the denominator, so these shares describe how often each level is stated, not the full mix.

FAQ

What share of registered nurse job postings are remote?+

<0.5% of the active postings on this page carry a remote flag. The flag is read from the posting itself, so hybrid roles that never say remote are counted as on-site. Filter the API with remote set to true and the same scope to reproduce the figure.

How many registered nurse postings disclose salary?+

42.7% state a salary or a range in the posting text or structured fields. Disclosure varies more by board and by jurisdiction than by role, so compare the figure with the board-level shares on the sources pages before reading it as a market signal.

Which skills appear most in registered nurse postings?+

The most named skills are nursing (93.5%), cpr (61.8%), patient-care (57.0%), communication (36.6%), leadership (23.7%). Skills are extracted from the posting text against a curated lexicon, and a posting counts once per skill it names, so the shares overlap.

Which industries hire the most registered nurse roles?+

By ISIC division, the largest shares are Healthcare (45.3%), Residential care (4.8%), Public administration (2.4%). Industry is resolved from the employer's classification where known, and postings without a classification are excluded from this cut.

Which functions are employers in Registered Nurse hiring for?+

The largest functions by share of postings are Healthcare (90.0%), Health Care Provider (9.5%), Other (<0.5%). Function is assigned from the normalized title and the posting text.

Where do these numbers come from?+

From JobsPipe's live index of postings on the ten boards it collects, deduplicated by posting id and counted on 2026-09-09. Only shares are published; the underlying counts stay private. Every figure can be reproduced against the JobsPipe API with the filters shown on this page.
