Corporate Counsel, Tinder

Our Mission:

As humans, there are few things more exciting than meeting someone new. At Tinder, we’re on a mission to power and inspire real connections by making it easy and fun for every new generation of singles. With tens of millions of users, hundreds of millions of downloads, 2+ billion swipes per day, 20+ million matches per day, and a presence in 190+ countries, our reach is expansive—and rapidly growing. We work together to solve complex problems. Behind the simplicity of every match, we think deeply about human relationships, behavioral science, network economics, AI and ML, online and real-world safety, cultural nuances, loneliness, love, sex, and more.

How you’ll make an impact:

• You will draft, revise and negotiate various commercial agreements, including partnership and distribution, marketing, sponsorship, promotional, production agreements, advertising insertion orders, communications, SaaS, technology, research, and general vendor related agreements, among others.
• You will provide legal support for various cross functional teams, including marketing, communications/PR, consumer insights, and  business development and work closely and collaboratively with internal teams to achieve desired business outcomes. 
• You will support our marketing and communications teams on various aspects of Tinder-branded marketing and PR campaigns and other promotional activities, as well as our consumer insights group with their research and analytics initiatives, including that you will provide counsel on campaigns from concepting through execution, and negotiate growth and distribution deals.
• You will advise on consumer-protection, advertising law, regulatory compliance, rights clearances, endorsement disclosures, etc.
• You will assist in administration of corporate policies and procedures, such as vendor security, privacy compliance and contract approval.
• You will work with internal counsel to establish, maintain and protect Match Group’s global trademark and general IP portfolio.
