Marketing Leadership salary
27 market ranges · employer-stated pay · updated Sep 24, 2026
These figures come from 364 marketing leadership postings where the employer stated pay, covering 21 cities. The single best-evidenced figure is Chicago at lead, where 49 postings put the middle half between $141,000 and $219,000, with a median of $172,000.
Location moves the number too. Of the 4 cities with enough disclosures to rank, New York pays most at around $213,000 and Seattle least at around $162,000, a gap of roughly 31%.
Every range here is counted from real postings, never modelled. 7 of the 21 US-dollar ranges rest on fewer than 10 postings, so treat those as a hint rather than a benchmark; the sample column tells you which.
