Overview
- Newmark announced Friday that Barry Gosin will leave the CEO role on December 31, 2026 and continue as chairman of Newmark & Co. through 2029 under an amended employment agreement.
- The board expects to identify and name a new chief executive by the end of 2026, positioning the company for an orderly leadership handover rather than an abrupt change.
- Management recently reported strong second-quarter results and told investors it expects double-digit revenue and profit growth for a third straight year, giving the incoming CEO a growth-minded starting point.
- Newmark operates about 195 offices with more than 10,000 professionals and generated over $3.6 billion in revenue for the 12 months ended June 30, 2026, so the transition affects a large global advisory and services platform.
- Gosin’s nearly five-decade tenure includes leading Newmark through its 2017 IPO, its 2018 spinoff from BGC, and more than 60 acquisitions, and his continued role is meant to help the next leadership team preserve that strategic momentum.
