Role Overview

This is a rare seat: a senior, highly strategic individual contributor role with direct influence on how one of the largest real estate platforms in the world grows.

As Head of Performance Marketing, you'll own the strategy and the execution behind how consumers find Compass. You'll set the vision, own the numbers, influence the product, and remain hands-on in the campaigns yourself. You'll work alongside senior leadership as a trusted growth advisor, and your recommendations will shape where we invest and how fast we move.

You'll also be in on the ground floor. As performance marketing scales across our brands, you'll help define what the function looks like, how it measures success, and who joins it next. This is your chance to build something inside real estate, not just inherit it.

What You'll Do

  • Set the strategy and run it. Build the performance marketing plan for Compass.com and drive execution across paid search, paid social, display, video, and emerging acquisition channels. You'll be both the architect and the operator.
  • Connect every dollar to outcomes that matter. Tie media performance to

You've built a testing culture that keeps the program getting smarter. You've shaped the roadmap for how performance marketing scales across CIH's brands, including the tools, operating model, and talent the function needs next. And you're seen as one of the most important growth voices in the company.
