Fox Corporation announced on September 22, 2025, that Robert Humann will become CEO of Credible, its San Francisco-based consumer finance technology platform, effective at the end of the month. Humann, who joined in 2016 when Credible was a Series A startup with one product, replaces founder Stephen Dash. He will report to Paul Cheesbrough, CEO of Tubi Media Group, Fox's digital businesses division.[1][2]
Humann's tenure as chief revenue officer fueled Credible's expansion from a niche player to a leading U.S. marketplace. He diversified its business model, advanced marketing strategies, forged partnerships with top publishers, and oversaw rapid growth in consumer financial products like loans and mortgages. Customers have closed more than $19 billion through its platform, which integrates with credit bureaus for personalized, pre-qualified rate comparisons from multiple lenders.[2][4]
"Rob has been an instrumental part of the Credible team for nearly ten years, shaping and delivering the value that we provide to both consumers and to partners each day," Cheesbrough said. "I'm extremely pleased to have him at the helm as we embark on the next chapter of the company."[1][2]
Humann, who holds a Bachelor of Arts in psychology from the University of Melbourne and a Graduate Diploma of applied finance, previously helped launch venture capital firm RCF Jolimont, focusing on tech for mining efficiency. "Credible has grown into a leading marketplace technology platform by putting consumers first and building trusted partnerships," he said. "I look forward to leading the company through its next stage of growth."[1][2]
Credible operates under Fox's Tubi Media Group, emphasizing tools that help users save on borrowing across personal loans, student loans, mortgages, and refinancing. The promotion signals continuity amid a competitive fintech landscape, where personalized rate shopping has become key to consumer trust.[2][4]
Dash's departure caps his role in scaling Credible since its early days, leaving Humann to build on partnerships and tech innovations that have positioned it as a go-to finance marketplace.[1][2]
