Appointment Underscores CoStar Group’s Commitment to European Growth and Leadership
CoStar Group (NASDAQ: CSGP), a global leader in commercial real estate information, analytics, online marketplaces and 3D digital twin technology, today announced the appointment of Alexa-Maria Rathbone Barker as Head of CoStar Europe. This leadership elevation comes as part of the company’s strategic growth plan across Europe.
In her expanded role, Alexa will oversee CoStar’s operations in the UK, reaffirming the company’s position as the most trusted provider of real-time, verified commercial real estate (CRE) intelligence. Her responsibilities will include deepening CoStar’s relationships with key players in the CRE space – especially among agencies – and helping clients grow through collaboration and partnerships.
Beyond her UK remit, Alexa will also lead CoStar’s European expansion. With product launches planned in France, Spain, and Germany, her multilingual skills and pan-European expertise will be instrumental in driving growth and building CoStar’s footprint in new markets.
Alexa joined CoStar Group as Head of European Sales, where over the past three years she led sales strategy and execution for the company’s market-leading platforms across the UK and Europe. Prior to that, she spent a decade at Bloomberg, holding senior leadership positions focused on international growth and heading the European Analytics team.
Fluent in English, French, and Spanish, Alexa brings a rare combination of extensive product knowledge, insight, regional expertise, and cross-cultural fluency to her new position.
“Alexa’s extensive experience, deep knowledge of the CRE landscape, and her clear understanding of our clients’ evolving needs make her the ideal choice to lead CoStar’s efforts across the UK and Europe,” said Robin Rossmann, Managing Director, Europe at CoStar Group. “Her promotion is a testament to our ongoing commitment to cultivating talent and delivering world-class services to our clients.”
