One of the country’s top property portals has made some noteworthy changes to its strategic capability as it readies for the next phase of growth.
Domain Group has added four new hires to its product and technology team, securing some of the best talent in the tech industry.
The four join after a period of rapid expansion for Domain in 2017 that has seen it create new roles for more than 80 people.
Domain CEO Antony Catalano said that the group is pushing forward into a “massive” 2018, following the company’s listing on the Australian Securities Exchange earlier this month.
He said that with diverse backgrounds in all aspects of product and technology development, the new hires strengthen Domain’s leadership as an innovator in the Australian property space.
“2017 has been a huge year for Domain and we’re not letting up in our commitment to deliver the best product and technology experiences for our consumers and clients,” Mr Catalano said.
“We have the right mix of product talent to inject fresh ideas and take our very strong suite of mobile and agent products into the next phase, building on our strength as the number one publisher of property journalism with the number one social media reach for property seekers.
“We take Domain’s reputation as a trusted property source seriously.”
Mr Catalano also said that Domain’s bolstered product and technology team will “drive improvements” to existing products and develop a suite of new products that deliver on the current and future needs of all stakeholders, including house hunters and agent clients.
Director of product management Lyndon Maher said that Domain has launched “numerous” product and technology firsts, which have changed the way Australians search and purchase property.
“Demand for next-generation platforms and superior consumer propositions is stronger than ever,” Mr Maher said.
“Finding the right mix of people to take Domain’s product and technology team to the next level has been a major focus for Domain over the past year.
“These new hires are incredibly talented and place us in a strong position to make massive strides in 2018 and beyond.”
The new hires are Katherine Santer, principal product manager; Benjamin Paton, senior product manager; Kirsty Lee, senior product manager; and Danielle Lowry, head of media products.
