“It’s a tremendous opportunity to work with the Cartus team, and with Ryan Schneider and the Realogy leadership team, as we focus on driving business results,” she added.
Helmkamp’s hire is the latest part of Schneider and Realogy president John Peyton’s plan to restructure Realogy’s leadership.
In February, Schneider named Sue Yannaccone as regional executive vice president of NRT and gave her former position as president and chief executive of the company’s ERA Franchise Systems to former ERA COO Simon Chen. He also tapped Ryan Gorman to serve as president and chief executive officer of the residential brokerage NRT.
“We wanted to make changes quickly and also send the message that at Realogy we want to have a talent mix of … inside the industry and outside the industry,” Peyton said at ICNY 2018’s CEO Connect.
“We’ve hired people from Barney’s to lead marketing, people from banking and consumer products as well as real estate. I think that balance of perspectives is important,” he said.
