Marketing Jobs in Singapore: Who's Hiring Right Now (Oct 2026)

You've got a week to get applications out and no clear read on who's actually hiring for marketing in Singapore. Here's the raw picture, pulled from the live feed on 14 October 2026: 54 open marketing jobs in Singapore, 35 posted in the last 30 days, and 13 of those in just the last 7 days.

That's a snapshot of JobRise's open listings, not a market survey. Treat it as a map of where to point your effort, not as gospel about the whole economy.

Who's holding the listings#

Two names own most of the volume. Fuku has 23 open roles, Delivery Hero has 10. Together that's 33 of 54, so more than half the market sits with two employers.

Then it thins out fast. Maker Lab and Stripe each show 4, MDDI has 3, Pinterest 2, and Clermont, PRISM+, Airbnb, and Okta have 1 each. If you're only chasing the famous logos, you'll miss the bulk of the actual openings.

A note on the names: some of these are recruiters or staffing firms, not end employers. Fuku's listings read like a placement desk, given titles such as "Brand Trading Management Leader" and "Integrated Marketing Manager CFD/Financial Industry" that span unrelated industries. Apply, but ask early who the client is before you burn an interview slot.

What's actually open#

The roles split into a few clear buckets. Delivery Hero's "Manager, Performance Marketing" is the classic growth seat: paid acquisition, budget ownership, and reporting on spend. Fuku's "Facebook Marketing Executive" and "Senior Integrated Marketing Expert" skew execution-heavy and channel-specific.

Brand work is thinner but real. Clermont's "Brand Director" is the senior end, Maker Lab's "Social Media Lead" and "Senior Marketing Specialist" sit in the middle, and Fuku's "Senior Integrated Marketing Expert" straddles brand and performance. If you've done campaign planning end to end, that hybrid role is where your CV has the most room to stretch.

The job-type mix tells you something#

Full-time is 50 of 54. Contract is 3, part-time is 1. Employers want permanent heads, not project help.

That matters for how you position yourself. If you've been freelancing, don't lead with "available for contracts" in your summary, because the market isn't buying that right now. Lead with the outcomes you delivered and let the employment type come up at offer stage.

One more number worth sitting with: 0 of 54 listings carry an intern, graduate, junior, or trainee title. This is not a market for someone trying to break in cold. If you're early career, you'll need to angle in through contract roles or transfer from an adjacent function like sales or customer success.

What the mix says about the market#

Big tech is present but small: Stripe 4, Pinterest 2, Airbnb 1, Okta 1. That's 8 listings across four global names, so the FAANG-style hiring spree you read about in 2021 is not what's happening here.

Startups and consumer brands show up as single listings: PRISM+ and Clermont each have one. Agencies and staffing firms, led by Fuku and Maker Lab, carry 27 of the 54. The public sector is in the room too: MDDI has 3 open roles, and if you want stability over equity, that's a real lane.

My read: this is a replacement market, not an expansion market. Big teams aren't being built. Seats are being backfilled, and the bar is on recent, measurable results.

How to apply this week#

Apply direct where you can. Staffing firms are a valid door, but a direct application to Delivery Hero or Stripe skips a layer and puts your name in front of the hiring manager sooner.

Mirror the listing's keywords. If the ad says "performance marketing" and "paid acquisition," use those exact phrases in your summary and top bullets, because the first filter is often a keyword match. Run your CV through a free ATS resume checker before you send it, and fix the gaps it flags.

Salary is the awkward bit. No listing in this slice shows a number. Marketing salaries in Singapore vary widely by seniority and industry, and reported ranges shift year to year, so check the current Ministry of Manpower or official source before you anchor your expectation to any figure you find online.

The 7-step plan#

• List the 10 companies above and mark which ones you'd actually take an offer from. Five yeses is enough to start.
• Pick your top 3 roles from the live feed and copy the exact job titles into a doc. You'll reuse that language.
• Rewrite your CV summary using the top 5 keywords from each target listing. Keep it to 3 lines.
• Quantify your 3 strongest bullets with numbers you can defend in an interview: budget managed, spend reduced, leads grown.
• Apply direct to Delivery Hero, Stripe, MDDI, and Pinterest first. Save Fuku and Maker Lab for the same week, not later.
• Message one person at each target company on LinkedIn with a 2-line note referencing the specific role. No "hope you're well."
• Track everything in a spreadsheet: company, role, date applied, contact name, next step. Review it every Friday and cut anything silent for 10 days.

For the wider picture across all functions, the JobRise Hiring Report: Singapore shows 760 open listings overall, with 386 posted in the last 30 days. Marketing is roughly 7% of that, so treat it as a focused search, not a volume game.

FAQ#

How current are these numbers?

They're a snapshot of JobRise's live jobs feed taken on 14 October 2026. Counts move daily as listings open and close, so recheck the feed before you plan your week around any single figure.

Should I apply through Fuku or wait for a direct role?

Apply now and ask which client the role sits with before the first interview. Waiting for a direct listing could cost you weeks, and the same job may never appear on the employer's own careers page.

Why do no listings show a salary?

Employers in Singapore often omit salary in marketing ads and negotiate at offer stage. Check current official sources for typical ranges by seniority rather than relying on any single job board's numbers.

Is there anything for entry-level candidates?

Nothing in this slice carries an intern, junior, graduate, or trainee title. Look at the 3 contract listings and adjacent functions like sales or customer success as a way in, then move across after a year.

Do I need to tailor my CV for every application?

Yes, at least the summary and top 3 bullets. The first screen is often a keyword match against the listing, so a generic CV loses to a tailored one even when your experience is stronger.
