Today we’re releasing the Phifer & Company 2026 Communications, Marketing & Branding Salary Guide.
A few insights from this year’s report:
• Many organizations are now creating leadership roles around the strengths of exceptional candidates
• Nearly 30% of leadership roles are created after companies meet exceptional candidates, rather than through posted job openings
• The hiring market is healthier than it appears. We are simply in a transition in how opportunities are found.
