CoStar Group is a global leader in commercial real estate information, analytics, online marketplaces and 3D digital twin technology. Included in the S&P 500 Index, CoStar Group is on a mission to digitize the world’s real estate—empowering people to discover properties, insights, and connections that improve their businesses and lives.
With leading brands across commercial and residential real estate - including CoStar, LoopNet, Apartments.com, Homes.com, STR, Matterport and other global online marketplaces - CoStar Group delivers trusted data, powerful analytics, and high-traffic online marketplaces that shape the future of the industry.
Role Overview
CoStar Group is seeking a Director of Public Relations & Corporate Communications to lead and execute the company’s enterprise-wide corporate communications strategy across its global portfolio of brands during a period of continued growth, competitive intensity, and heightened market visibility.
The role encompasses corporate reputation, executive visibility, media relations, thought leadership, financial communications support, and crisis communications, and operates in close partnership with the Founder and CEO and executive leadership team, with broad cross-functional visibility across Investor Relations, Legal, Finance, Product, Analytics, Research, and Marketing.
This is not a traditional PR role; it requires a proactive strategist who anticipates narrative shifts before they surface and positions the company on offense rather than waiting to respond.
The Director will manage and develop a high-performing communications team, including the Manager of Residential Communications, the Manager of Commercial Communications, and the Manager of UK & European Communications. This leader will also oversee and direct the work of external public relations agencies supporting CoStar Group’s brands and corporate initiatives.
This is a senior leadership role based in Arlington, Virginia, requiring five days per week in the office. The position reports to the VP, CoStar Group Marketing & Communications and maintains a direct working relationship with the CEO, with responsibility for leading corporate communications efforts and partnering closely with external agency teams.
Why This Role Matters
CoStar Group is digitizing the world's real estate markets — and operating in an intense competitive environment where narrative matters, the CEO expects their communications leader to be in the room shaping strategy, not drafting press releases after the fact.
The Director of Public Relations will ensure CoStar Group's industry transforming innovation, data leadership, and marketplace growth are clearly understood by customers, investors, media, and the broader industry — while actively shaping how the market interprets CoStar Group's momentum versus competitors.
This is a strategic narrative leadership position responsible for:
Success requires anticipation, decisiveness, and executive-level confidence.
