TL;DR
Business & Operations leads at 10.2% of new job listings in MORT's ATS feed for the week of 17-24 June 2026, with Healthcare (9.9%) and Software Engineering (9.7%) nearly tied. The US accounts for 45% of the 102,184 new postings tracked that week. Two in three roles are onsite. Among the 35% of postings that disclose salary, US roles show a median range of $70,000 to $89,486. This is part of the MORT Job Market Report.
The snapshot: 102,000+ new postings in one week
MORT's ATS feed tracked 102,184 new job listings in the seven days ending 24 June 2026. These postings come from companies hiring directly via ATS platforms - Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, SmartRecruiters, Recruitee, Pinpoint, JazzHR, and others - not from job board aggregators. The data reflects what companies are actively hiring for right now, not a broader snapshot of all internet job postings.
Of those 102,184 new listings, 22,280 were tagged remote-only (21.8%). The rest required at least some onsite presence, or had no explicit remote policy stated. Alongside the total count, the US Bureau of Labor Statistics reported the economy added 172,000 jobs in May 2026, with healthcare adding 35,000 of those - a trend that shows up clearly in the role mix below.
How to read this data
The role and remote-policy breakdowns below come from a 1,000-job sample of the 7-day window. Country totals are from the full 102,184-listing feed. MORT's feed skews toward tech-adjacent and professional services companies, so it over-represents some roles (software engineering, operations) relative to the full economy, and under-represents sectors like education or government.
What role categories companies are filling
Business & Operations tops the table, but the more striking data point is how closely Healthcare and Software Engineering track each other. Healthcare at 9.9% of the sample is almost exactly level with Software Engineering at 9.7% - an unusually tight gap in a feed that has historically skewed toward tech roles.
| Role category | Share of sample | Approx. count in full feed |
|---|---|---|
| Business & Operations | 10.2% | ~10,400 |
| Healthcare | 9.9% | ~10,100 |
| Software Engineering | 9.7% | ~9,900 |
| Sales & Account Management | 7.6% | ~7,800 |
| Skilled Trades & Field Roles | 6.5% | ~6,600 |
| Finance, Legal & Compliance | 5.1% | ~5,200 |
| Engineering (Non-Software) | 4.8% | ~4,900 |
| Hospitality & Retail | 4.2% | ~4,300 |
| Marketing | 3.1% | ~3,200 |
| People, HR & Recruitment | 2.2% | ~2,200 |
Role categories are from the API taxonomy. The remaining ~37% of the 1,000-job sample is uncategorised or in smaller categories not shown. "Approx. count in full feed" is the sample percentage applied to 102,184 - treat as an order-of-magnitude estimate, not an exact figure. This is the first report (baseline); week-over-week changes will appear from the next run.
The BLS May 2026 employment report confirms the healthcare hiring signal from a different angle: healthcare alone added 35,000 jobs in May out of 172,000 total. That's 20% of all new US jobs in a single month coming from one sector - which explains why it's closing the gap on software engineering by raw posting volume.
For job seekers, the practical point is that the hiring mix is broader than the tech-centric narratives suggest. Business operations, sales, skilled trades, and healthcare together account for more than a third of all new postings. If you're in those fields, competition may be lower than in software engineering - where the absolute volume is similar but the candidate pool is larger.
Where the jobs are
The US dominates at 45% of all new listings, followed by the UK at 10%. Together they account for more than half the postings in MORT's monitored feed. Germany (4.7%), France (4%), and Canada (3.3%) are the next largest markets.
| Country | New listings (week of 17-24 Jun) | Share of all 102,184 |
|---|---|---|
| United States | 45,986 | 45.0% |
| United Kingdom | 10,207 | 10.0% |
| Germany | 4,849 | 4.7% |
| France | 4,126 | 4.0% |
| Canada | 3,406 | 3.3% |
| India | 2,979 | 2.9% |
| Netherlands | 2,060 | 2.0% |
| Australia | 1,534 | 1.5% |
| Spain | 1,383 | 1.4% |
| Ireland | 639 | 0.6% |
MORT currently monitors 10 countries. The 10-country total is 77,169 (75.5% of all 102,184 listings); approximately 25,000 listings are from countries outside this list. India at 2.9% and the Netherlands at 2.0% are notable given the size of each labour market - both are worth watching in future weeks.
Onsite is still the default
In the 1,000-job sample, 66% of listings were labelled onsite, 17% hybrid, and 17% remote. That means roughly one in three new postings offers some degree of location flexibility (hybrid or remote), but two in three require physical attendance.
| Work policy | Share of sample |
|---|---|
| Onsite | 66.3% |
| Remote | 17.2% |
| Hybrid | 16.5% |
From the 1,000-job sample. Remote policy is based on the label in each posting, which may reflect policy rather than actual practice. MORT's feed skews toward tech-adjacent companies; the broader job market has a lower remote share.
The 17% remote share is higher than some broader market estimates - Robert Half's 2026 data put fully-remote listings at lower levels across the general US market (roberthalftechnology.com). The difference is the composition of MORT's feed: companies using Greenhouse, Ashby, and Lever tend to be venture-backed or mid-market tech companies, which offer higher remote rates than the economy as a whole. If you're targeting a non-tech sector, expect the onsite share to be higher.
The broader signal that matters for job seekers: remote is available, but it is a minority of new postings, and competition for those roles is higher. Hybrid roles - which give flexibility without the full remote signal - are nearly as common as fully-remote ones.
What these jobs pay
Only 35% of listings in the sample disclosed salary. That means almost two in three postings are still hiding compensation - a pattern that correlates with negotiation culture (particularly in the US) rather than low pay, but it does limit how much you can read into the medians.
Among postings that did disclose, medians by currency (for currencies with 10 or more disclosures in the sample) were:
| Currency | Sample size | Median posted min | Median posted max |
|---|---|---|---|
| USD | 316 | $70,000 | $89,486 |
| EUR | 16 | €25,000 | €31,000 |
| GBP | 10 | £25,000 | £29,102 |
"Median posted min/max" is the median of the posted salary floor and ceiling across all jobs in that currency - not the midpoint of a range. Currencies are not comparable: these are entirely different labour markets with different cost bases. EUR and GBP samples are very small (16 and 10 jobs respectively); treat as directional only, not as representative medians for those markets.
The USD numbers are the most reliable given the sample size (n=316). A US role that discloses salary is most likely to post a range of roughly $70k to $89k at the median. Roles in Software Engineering, Finance, and Legal/Compliance will skew well above that; roles in Healthcare support, Hospitality, and Skilled Trades will skew below.
The low disclosure rate on GBP postings (10 jobs out of ~97 UK jobs in the sample, or ~10%) is consistent with the UK market's historically low salary transparency. This will improve as pay transparency norms spread, but for now UK job seekers should expect to negotiate from a much smaller disclosed baseline.
What the mix tells you as a job seeker
A few practical reads from the data:
- Healthcare and Business/Operations are hiring at volume comparable to tech. If you are in those fields, the raw number of open roles is comparable to software engineering. The candidate volume per role may be lower.
- The US is where the volume is, but not the only option. At 45% of the feed, US roles dominate. But the UK (10%), Germany (4.7%), and France (4%) together add up to nearly 20,000 new listings per week - a substantial market in its own right.
- Remote roles are real, but they draw more competition. 17% of the feed is remote. Because remote roles are location-independent, they attract applicants from everywhere. If you are applying to remote roles, expect the applicant pool to be larger than for comparable onsite roles in a single city.
- Two in three roles do not disclose salary. Use disclosed medians as a floor, not an average. Research comparable roles on BLS OES or Glassdoor to triangulate before a compensation conversation.
On relevance: the total volume of new postings is high, but not all of those 102k listings are relevant to any one job seeker.

Frequently asked questions
What jobs are in highest demand right now?
Based on MORT's ATS feed for 17-24 June 2026, the top three role categories by posting volume are Business & Operations (10.2%), Healthcare (9.9%), and Software Engineering (9.7%). Sales & Account Management (7.6%) and Skilled Trades & Field Roles (6.5%) round out the top five.
Is the job market strong right now in 2026?
The US Bureau of Labor Statistics reported 172,000 jobs added in May 2026, with unemployment at 4.3%. MORT's feed tracked 102,184 new listings in a single week. Openings are plentiful, but hiring selectivity is high: employers are interviewing fewer candidates per open role than during peak years, and many roles stay open longer before filling.
Are remote jobs still available in 2026?
Yes, but they are a minority. In MORT's June 2026 data, 17% of listings were labelled fully remote and 17% hybrid, leaving 66% onsite. Remote availability is higher in MORT's ATS-indexed feed than in broader market surveys because MORT's feed skews toward tech-adjacent and professional services companies.
What are the highest-paying jobs right now?
Among the 35% of MORT's June 2026 jobs that disclosed salary, US-dollar roles showed a median posted range of $70,000 (min) to $89,486 (max). Software Engineering, Finance/Legal, and senior operations roles typically sit above that median. EUR-denominated roles showed a median of €25,000 to €31,000, and GBP roles £25,000 to £29,102, though those samples were small (16 and 10 jobs respectively).
Which country has the most job openings right now?
The United States, by a wide margin. In the week of 17-24 June 2026, the US accounted for 45,986 new listings (45% of all tracked postings). The UK was second at 10,207 (10%), followed by Germany at 4,849 (4.7%).
