The Chief of Staff role at realtor.com represents a unique opportunity to be exposed to and operate at the highest levels of a leading digital real estate company that’s already at scale, profitable, and growing quickly.

You can quickly take complex concepts and communicate them briefly, simply and persuasively. You’ve demonstrated the ability to communicate at executive levels of large companies or organizations
  • Structured problem solving: strategic thinking, in particular the ability to break complex problems down into component parts. The ability to lead on and enjoy both strategic and tactical work is key
  • Analytical capability: You’re confident creating, scrutinizing and improving everything from revenue models to pivot tables to dashboards. You’ve repeatedly done the work to make sure complex business reporting data is accurate, but you’re also able to cut out the noise by identifying the most salient data points to inform decision making.


Additional capabilities that will help the best candidates stand out:

  • Emotional intelligence and the ability to establish strong and trusting relationships with colleagues
  • Designing or leading organizational change management around new goals, priorities, team changes or projects

  • Facilitation skills; you design thoughtful meeting processes/agendas and are skilled at chairing or facilitating meetings or sessions that make progress on high stakes discussions with senior stakeholders.

  • Report directly to the CFO, while supporting the CEO, CFO, and ELT
  • Plan and facilitate ELT meetings, planning sessions, company-wide business reviews, etc.
  • Prepare presentations and business updates, and drive follow-up and resolution for ELT and company-wide priorities
  • Project manage preparation and creation of materials for internal ELT and external News Corp meetings
  • Offer general support: correspondence, agendas, minute taking, etc (note: core administrative support to the CEO/CFO is provided by a separate admin role)
  • Consolidate, synthesize, and communicate regular competitive reports and insights, supporting realtor.com CEO, CFO, and ELT, as well as News Corp Investor Relations
  • Assist in developing and driving company-wide OKR processes, ensuring organizational alignment, regular dashboard reporting, and transparent performance management
