Sr. Communications Manager
Match Group· Tinder – Communications
Hybrid (New York, NY)$155k - $170kFull-timePosted 2mo ago
About the role
Senior communications role focused on translating product innovation into compelling narratives, partnering with Product, Product Marketing, Analytics, and Brand, and owning data-backed storytelling and press outreach for Tinder.
Responsibilities
- Build and lead communications strategy for major feature launches, partnering with Product, Product Marketing, and Brand from early planning through launch day
- Translate product improvements into stories consumers actually care about, why a feature makes dating better, not just what it does
- Turn complex product areas into simple, credible narratives with clear proof points
- Spot creative, non-obvious angles in Tinder's product and behavioral data and turning them into pitchable stories that break through a crowded feed
- Request and scope data pulls with Analytics, and shepherd every data-backed claim through approval (methodology, sample size, sign-off) before it reaches a reporter or agency
- Packaging approved data and narrative for our PR agency partners to execute in-market pitch outreach
- Bring comms' perspective into cross-functional launch planning early enough to help shape the story, flagging early when a narrative needs more definition or a claim isn't ready
- Personally draft pitches and maintain your own press relationships
Qualifications
- 5+ years in communications, ideally spanning both product and consumer storytelling in consumer tech
- A track record of hands-on management of feature launches with cross-functional teams, from strategy through placement
- Sharp instincts for finding the signal in a roadmap or dataset before anyone else spots it
- A real read on how the media landscape is shifting, and genuine curiosity about newer formats like podcasts and social-first reporters, not just the traditional trade and consumer press
- Live media relationships. When a reporter emails, you're the one who picks up the phone
- Comfort being in the room early with Product, Product Marketing, and Brand, not just receiving a brief after the fact
- Enough data fluency to look at a pile of behavioral numbers or performance metrics and find the one angle that's a compelling story
