Zillow's recent moves reflect the company's efforts to streamline operations and position itself for future growth. By expanding Jeremy Hofmann's role to COO, the company is clearly looking to leverage his expertise in leading the organization. The addition of Sandi Knight and promotion of two SVPs also signal that Zillow is investing in talent to drive its business forward.
These changes come on the heels of Zillow's announcement to cut 7% of its staff, which may have raised concerns about the company's stability.
