Hinge is the dating app designed to be deleted

In today's digital world, finding genuine relationships is tougher than ever. At Hinge, we’re on a mission to inspire intimate connection to create a less lonely world. We’re obsessed with understanding our users’ behaviors to help them find love, and our success is defined by one simple metric– setting up great dates. With tens of millions of users across the globe, we’ve become the most trusted way to find a relationship, for all.

About the Role



As an Senior Education & Outreach Specialist, you will be responsible for delivering policy and best practices education to internal and external users and stakeholders. With a focus on delivery, the Senior Education & Outreach Specialist will deliver Hinge’s educational efforts to users and stakeholders globally. This will require significant foundational understanding of the Trust & Safety landscape, creativity, and a highly collaborative mindset.

Responsibilities

  • Develop and manage the completion of projects: Develop educational materials and resources that include policies, standards, and best practices to internal and external stakeholders. Track feedback and use insights generated to share within the Education & Outreach team to improve current educational materials.  
  • Collaborate with cross functional teams: Provide direct educational support to internal teams across Hinge and MG responsible for content moderation, support, appeals, or global escalations. This includes the follow through of assigned projects, along with the development of ad hoc education or outreach upon request from Hinge stakeholders. 
  • Scale and Improve internal education: Collaborate within Education & Outreach, along with Operations, Policy, and Product Leads to ensure all materials provided to users and agents reflect our current policies and product offerings and meet regulatory, and legal standards. Regularly meet with stakeholders across Operations, Product, and Policy to understand potential updates and work with Education & Outreach to develop materials appropriate for any changes. 

What We’re Looking For

  • The ideal candidate should have 1+ years of relevant work in a training role, account management, client services, product, or Trust & Safety. This includes experience interfacing with Operations, Product, Communications, Marketing, or Legal partners as well as experience in developing processes for operational excellence within their organization. 
  • Effective communication is crucial in this role. You have excellent communication skills, and be able to articulate complex concepts clearly and succinctly to internal stakeholders who may not be familiar with Hinge or with dating Apps. 
  • A willingness to learn and remain deeply curious about our users and their needs, while also partnering across stakeholders to challenge assumptions, understand problem sets in detail, and confidence to seek other inputs to supplement experiential and cultural knowledge gaps. The ideal candidate should have a "no task is too small" attitude and a willingness to dive into the details to move projects along and solve complex problems. You enjoy working in a fast-paced and ever-changing environment. 
  • You are able to use data sourced from a variety of internal and external resources to identify trends, and suggest strategies to improve our internal Education efforts. 
  • You are passionate about supporting users around the world, regardless of personal experience with specific regional norms, expectations or culture. You have a deep understanding of user expectations, and make every decision with the user at the forefront.  

Salary Range

$97,000.00 - $117,000.00 per year salary

Factors such as scope and responsibilities of the position, candidate's work experience, education/training, job-related skills, internal peer equity, as well as market and business considerations may influence base pay offered. This salary range is reflective of a position based in New York City. This salary will be subject to a geographic adjustment (according to a specific city and state), if an authorization is granted to work outside of the location listed in this posting.

Diversity inspires innovation.

Hinge is an equal opportunity employer. We value diversity at our company and do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status. We believe success is created by a diverse workforce of individuals with different ideas, strengths, interests, and cultural backgrounds.

The Hinge ACE Value I resonate with most is...

Authenticity! At Hinge I'm not only allowed but encouraged to bring my whole self to work. As a result, I've developed the closest relationships and friendships with coworkers that I have ever had.

Frequently Asked Questions

You’ve got questions, we’ve got answers

Apply for this role

In early 2019, Hinge became part of Match Group. Since then, Hinge’s executive team has continued to set our mission, vision, and the working norms that guide how we show up every day. While some corporate functions are supported at the Match Group level, working at Hinge is unique experience — shaped by our people, our values, and our product.

TL;DR: We get the best of both worlds! Hinge still operates like a small, mission-driven company, and we have the stability and resources of a company that’s stood the test of time.

Of course! Having used Hinge or any other dating app is definitely not a requirement. That being said, we are looking for team members who genuinely believe our product can and will help people all over the world connect. Our team is passionate about the dating industry and we hope you’ll be passionate about it too!

Hybrid roles at Hinge are based in NYC and require weekly presence in our Meatpacking District office. The team values in-person collaboration and we hope to see everyone in our beautiful office space three days a week starting Fall of 2023. Each team will have some freedom to determine what works best for them, but we generally aim for consistent in-office days to maximize the opportunity to collaborate.

TLDR: Beautiful working spaces, lots of plants, even more food and snacks, dog friendly - 3 days a week :)

Relationships are at the core of everything we do.

And not just the romantic kind. We can’t accomplish really hard things alone—so we make great relationships the foundation of our teamwork.

We believe our three core values. Authenticity, Courage, and Empathy are what it takes to build those great relationships.

We are growing each week, but last time we checked, more than 320 talented and beautiful souls are a part of the Hinge team across all of our departments.

Paying our people fairly and equitably is really important to us! We offer packages with three types of compensation depending on role type and level. Most compensation packages at Hinge consist of base salary, annual bonus target percentage and equity in the form of MTCH stock.
