Hanrahan joined the company with the acquisition of Handy in October 2018, becoming ANGI's chief product officer the next year.
I'm really excited for the opportunity to lead ANGI at this inflection point," Hanrahan said in a statement. As we've all spent extra time at home over the last year it's clearer than ever how important our physical space is in our daily lives, and ANGI's mission to help people love where they live is more relevant than ever. I'm grateful to the board and energized to work with our talented team to help ANGI become the home for everything home."
ANGI's previous CEO, Brandon Ridenour, is stepping down from the role. In the announcement, IAC CEO Joey Levin thanked Ridenour for his instrumental role in building ANGI Homeservices over the last decade" while praising Hanrahan as an exceptional product visionary."
