NEW YORK CITY — Barry Gosin will step down as CEO of Newmark Group, effective Dec. 31, 2026, after holding the position since 1979. Gosin will continue as chairman of the full-service real estate firm’s operating company, which plans to name a new CEO by the time he resigns as CEO. In his time as CEO, Gosin guided Newmark through its sale in 2011 and spin-off from its then-parent company, BGC Partner Inc., in 2018. He also oversaw Newmark’s initial public offering (IPO) in 2017. Under Gosin’s leadership, Newmark has acquired more than 55 companies and expanded into Europe. Since its 2011 sale, Newmark has been the fastest growing publicly traded commercial real estate services company, according to Gosin’s bio. “I have spent nearly my entire career at Newmark, working alongside an exceptional team whose dedication, talent and commitment have made the company’s success possible,” says Gosin. “The company is stronger than ever; our strategy is working, and the opportunities ahead are substantial, which is why now is the right time to take a step back from day-to-day operations to focus solely on matters that will make a difference to Newmark and to support the company through this transition.”
