US-based real estate platform Realtor.com has announced Leslie Jordan was appointed as their new Chief Product Officer (CPO).
The Announcement:
Realtor has announced that Leslie Jordan has been promoted to chief product officer.
In this role, Ms Jordan will lead product strategy, product management, product marketing and design across Realtor platforms as the company continues in its mission to empower consumers and make buying, selling, renting and living in homes easier and more enjoyable for everyone.
She will report to CEO David Doctorow.
“Leslie has been an integral part of our product leadership team; her contributions have been invaluable as Realtor focuses on solving fundamental problems for buyers, sellers, renters, and real estate professionals,” said Mr Doctorow.
“Her strong consumer product acumen and proven track record will be essential as we continue to evolve our experience to empower people along their real estate journey, help them understand their options, and deliver personalized experiences.”
Ms Jordan assumed the CPO role at a pivotal moment for Realtor.
Audience growth has consistently outpaced that of its closest competitor over the past seventeen months, based on Comscore and FY21 revenue grew by 36 per cent.
Ms Jordan’s product leadership will help Realtor continue to build on this momentum to create a world-class buyer experience, help home sellers and renters explore their options, and connect more people with professionals to help them succeed.
Most recently, Ms Jordan served as senior vice president of product strategy at Realtor.
In this role, she oversaw product marketing and strategy, while helping to identify new growth areas for the company.
Ms Jordan joined Realtor in October 2018 as part of the acquisition of Opcity, where she served as Head of Product and built the product, design and product marketing teams from the ground up. Before working at Opcity, Ms Jordan served as a product leader at Lithium Technologies (now Khoros).
She has a proven track record of product leadership roles in start-ups that resulted in successful acquisitions that have driven accelerated growth for larger companies.
Her diverse experience in engineering, sales, and product marketing, gives her a unique perspective and expertise in bringing cross-functional teams together to effectively build great products that customers love.
“Over the past three years, I’ve had the chance to work with one of the most talented and driven teams in the industry,” Ms Jordan said.
“As we move forward, I’m excited to work with David and the leadership team to continue to evolve Realtor’s product strategy and bring to market the next generation of products that meet consumers wherever they are in their home journey.”
