The thesis

Why this org is unusual

eBay operates without a Chief Operating Officer, an uncommon choice for a global marketplace of its scale.

Instead, core revenue, technology, growth, finance, and legal leaders all report directly to the CEO, resulting in a broad CEO span. This structure emphasizes functional accountability rather than divisional P&L ownership.

The org chart shows commercial execution split between a Chief Commercial Officer and a Chief Growth Officer, while platform stability and innovation sit under a powerful CTO role. Recent executive changes in 2025 reshaped the top team, notably with a new CFO and expanded CTO and CCO mandates, reinforcing a CEO-centric model.

  • No COO role
  • All core functions report directly to CEO
