Role Overview
Own the story of how GenZ date in the UK. Working alongside Global and Product Marketing, you will be responsible for helping to drive Tinder’s brand strategy, positioning and integrated marketing plans in the UK, grow brand love, cultural relevance and business impact. This role owns the brand narrative end-to-end – from insight and strategy through to creative development, media planning and post-campaign measurement.
