About this role
About the role:
Tinder is investing in bringing people together beyond the screen. Our Events program curates in-person experiences that give members new ways to connect and we’re scaling fast.

Maintain event inventory by city or MG brand

Apply judgement
- Be able to quickly distinguish and evaluate all qualities and factors of an event that will or won’t appeal to Tinder users

- Experience with high volume metadata and asset management
- Fluent in TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube, including formats, trends, and what actually performs with Gen Z
