Sales job postings: seniority, remote share and skills (2026)
This page reads every active sales posting JobsPipe collects from LinkedIn, Indeed, Y Combinator, Workday, Greenhouse, Workable, SmartRecruiters, Ashby, Lever and Paylocity and reports the mix as shares: who the postings are aimed at, how many say remote or disclose pay, which industries and countries they come from, and how companies of different sizes hire for the function.
8.9% of these postings are marked remote, 33.1% state a salary or range, the most common seniority label is senior at 11.1%. 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 sales job postings are remote?+
8.9% 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 sales postings disclose salary?+
33.1% 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 industries hire the most sales roles?+
By ISIC division, the largest shares are Software and IT services (6.6%), Financial services (3.4%), Retail trade (3.3%). Industry is resolved from the employer's classification where known, and postings without a classification are excluded from this cut.
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.
