Job Title: Sales/Marketing/Creative – Content Strategist
Location: Remote
Duration:6 months

Job Description: Continuously evolving how people move and live, helping to shape the future of real estate. Achieving that vision requires bold thinking, rapid adaptation, and talented people who are excited to tackle complex challenges.
Within that broader ambition, Rentals represents one of the most dynamic opportunities in the industry. Macro trends—from affordability pressures to shifting renter demographics—are transforming how people find and secure homes. At the same time, the market is highly competitive, with large, established players and rapidly evolving expectations from both renters and property professionals.
At the Rentals, division the aspiration is clear: to build the largest and most trusted rentals marketplace—helping renters get home while helping our partners unlock success.
Over the past decade, Rentals has grown into the fastest-growing business line within the organization, powering a marketplace that connects millions of renters with property managers and owners across the country. While we’ve made tremendous progress, we believe the most exciting opportunities still lie ahead.
The stakes are high. With persistent housing affordability challenges and fluctuating vacancy rates across markets, the need for better tools, transparency, and efficiency in renting has never been greater. Our goal is to build products that make renting easier for consumers while enabling our partners to operate more successfully in a rapidly changing landscape.
