Realtor.com named two new top executives on Wednesday to fill its chief revenue and chief growth officer positions.
The News Corp-owned online listings portal announced that Bryan Ellis will take over as chief revenue officer, while Arthur Chapin will join the company for the newly created role of chief growth officer.
“Bryan is an accomplished business leader with a proven track record of executing growth strategies that will be invaluable in his role as chief revenue officer and continuing to deliver strong results in our core real estate business,” said David Doctorow, CEO of Move Inc., which operates Realtor.com. “Arthur is a talented leader and strategist who will focus on expanding our business into the rentals and new homes markets. The addition of these two new leaders positions us well to be able to address the needs of consumers across their entire real estate journey, as well as those of our industry partners who help deliver those experiences.”
