REA Group has appointed one of Australia’s most-respected and experienced property commentators Cameron Kusher to the newly-created role of Executive Director of Economic Research.
Mr Kusher joins REA from CoreLogic, where he spent more than 10 years, most recently as the Head of Research.
REA Group CEO Owen Wilson said Mr Kusher would work alongside REA’s well-established and influential Chief Economist Nerida Conisbee, and that his appointment was core to the company’s growth strategy.
“We want to provide Australians with the best research, data and insights to better inform their property decisions,” Mr Wilson said.
“With access to unparalleled demand data and Hometrack predictive modelling, together Nerida and Cameron will play a fundamental role informing key audience groups with market leading analysis and commentary.”
Mr Kusher said he was grateful for the experience gained at CoreLogic and was excited to begin this new phase of his career.
“I am passionate about property and I look forward to extending the strong foundations of economic research and reporting to a broad range of stakeholders,” he said.
REA Group’s Economist team forms part of the Corporate Affairs and Communications function within the Audience and Marketing division of REA Group, headed by Chief Marketing Officer Melina Cruickshank.
