  • 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.

We could be a match if:

  • You have a minimum of four years' experience (preferred), with top law firm and in-house legal department experience (also preferred).
  • You are curious, action oriented, creative, and are apt to work collaboratively both within a broader legal team and across diverse business teams.

  • Corporate Counsels who succeed on this team are strategic thinkers and self-starters who can simultaneously manage multiple demands and shifting priorities within a fast-paced, and rapidly evolving environment.
  • Team members work autonomously but also together to leverage knowledge and experience when appropriate.
  • Team members are expected to provide business friendly counsel and act as true partners to their internal business clients, enabling initiatives and finding solutions.
