Background

About Simon Hope

I have a track record of growing and transforming digital product businesses in both established and emerging markets. My experience covers full business leadership, from managing P&L to developing data-driven strategies, and leading large, cross-functional teams to achieve strong growth and operational improvements. I am most effective where strategy and execution meet, delivering results through clear, practical leadership. As CPO at REA India, I set a focused business and product strategy and improved planning and delivery to help the business succeed in a complex and competitive market. Earlier, as EGM in Australia, I drove 10% CAGR by launching new advertising products, expanding subscriptions, and increasing platform adoption. I also led the integration of flatmates.com.au, delivering first-year growth while maintaining its unique culture. I am known for building high-performing teams, maintaining engagement above 85%, and developing future leaders across product and technology. My approach combines strong customer focus and disciplined execution. I simplify complex challenges, drive teams toward ambitious goals, and foster a culture of accountability and collaboration. My background blends expertise in statistics and analysis with hands-on product delivery in both B2B and B2C settings. I welcome the opportunity to connect.
