Corporate Counsel, Tinder

How you’ll make an impact:

• Contract Drafting and Negotiations: Draft and negotiate contracts and agreements with partners and vendors to protect the company's interests and ensure compliance with relevant laws. Collaborate closely with business partners and cross-functional teams to tailor agreements that support business objectives while maintaining appropriate risk management.
• Brand Advisory: Assess potential risks and provide strategic legal solutions to minimize exposure on creative concepts, marketing materials and partnership structures. You will help ensure compliance with advertising laws, consumer protection standards, intellectual property laws, and clearance obligations for marketing campaigns, press promotions, events, sponsorships, and partnerships.
• Interdepartmental Legal Support: Partner directly with both business teams including marketing, media buying, comms and business development, and cross-functional legal teams, including litigation, privacy, and data security, to provide practical, solutions-oriented legal guidance that supports business goals. Participate in strategy and creative sessions to offer real-time legal input and build trusted relationships with stakeholders across the organization.
• Compliance and Security Oversight: Ensure business practices align with corporate policies, particularly in vendor relationships, data privacy, and financial operations. Monitor internal procedures, identify potential risks, and exercise sound judgment on when to independently resolve issues or escalate concerns.
• Resource Development and Management: Develop and maintain legal resources—including templates, playbooks, and guidance materials - to help business teams navigate common legal considerations with clear and practical guidance. Contribute to training and knowledge-sharing initiatives that promote consistent practices across teams and regions.
• Legal Process Optimization: Identify opportunities to improve legal processes and responsibly use AI to enhance efficiency and workflows, and streamline document management and routine legal reviews. Maintain strong ownership of projects from initial issue spotting through resolution.
