Click here to take part in Marketing Week's 2027 Career & Salary Survey.
In this episode of The Marketing Week Podcast, work and careers editor & podcast lead Molly Innes is joined by deputy editor Charlotte Rogers to unpack the challenges and opportunities facing the industry ahead of next year.
For almost three decades, the Career & Salary Survey has held up a mirror to the industry, unpacking the latest trends in skills, recruitment, salaries and more. The episode explores what resonated in 2026, from pay gaps to stalling progression and imposter syndrome, teasing what's to come in 2027.
This year we want to explore how marketers’ mental health is being impacted by the persistent pressure to deliver ‘more with less’, analyse the state of career progression and ask how AI is impacting everything from relationships with colleagues to recruitment.
We want to examine whether pay gaps are closing, if restructures are ramping up and explore if marketers really have ownership of the 4Ps.
Please take 15 minutes to fill out the survey and help us create the industry’s most in-depth census of marketing careers and salaries.
With your help we will be able to uncover some of the most interesting and prominent workplace trends for the year ahead, the results of which will inform a series of news stories and features next year.
The deadline for completion is 20 November and anyone who takes part will have the chance to be entered into a prize draw to win one of two £150 Amazon vouchers.
