Zumper, the largest privately-held rental marketplace in the U.S, has named Darren Goode as Chief Marketing Officer, a new position for the company. Goode’s 25 years plus of global marketing and advertising experience spans North America, Latin America, Europe and Asia.
“Zumper offers tenants and property owners an end-to-end rental experience that is unparalleled in the industry and has become an invaluable resource and marketplace to tens of millions of people every year as they look for the best ways to navigate the complex rental market,” Goode said.

At Apple, he served as head of Europe for iTunes, where he oversaw operations across 38 countries.
Zumper gives renters the ability to find, apply for and then book their next apartment, as well as digitally pay their landlord their rent, all in one place. For small landlords and multi-family properties, Zumper helps find reliable tenants, markets to millions of active renters and collects rent. Since launching in 2012, the Zumper team has grown to more than 200 employees in five offices across the country, including New York.
