Sr. Manager, Marketing Analytics at Matchgroup in Los Angeles, CA

Job description

Know where you belong! Match Group is a leading provider of dating products across the globe. Our portfolio includes Tinder, Hinge, Match, Meetic, PlentyOfFish, OkCupid, The League, HER, and others, each designed to spark meaningful connections for singles worldwide. Creating a sense of belonging doesn’t stop at our products - it’s the foundation of every team we hire. When it comes to dating, the connection starts online, but the real magic happens once you meet in real life (IRL). We think the same is true for creating the best platforms, so we work together IRL 3 days/week. The Team The Marketing Analytics team is Match Group's central analytics hub for our Emerging & Established (E&E) brands, connecting marketing, product, finance, and experimentation insights into a clear, coherent view of business performance. Our mission is to turn distributed data signals into cohesive, actionable narratives that help brand and portfolio leadership understand what is happening across the business, and why. We do for ~17 E&E brands — across 28 markets and 46 brand/market combinations — what the team also does for Tinder: own trends and monitoring, experimentation, roadmap and strategy translation, and the executive narratives that drive decisions. The team operates across three core functions: Insights & Performance (Analysts): Own brand and pod-level performance insights and stakeholder partnerships. Measurement & Experimentation (Data Scientists): Provide advanced analytics, causal measurement, and experimentation guidance and interpretation. Strategy & Operations: Maintain reporting infrastructure, metric governance, and scalable analytics processes. We are seeking a Senior Manager of Marketing Analytics to lead the E&E Insights function — building and coaching the analyst team that owns full-funnel performance narratives across the E&E portfolio, and serving as the senior analytics partner to brand and cross-functional leadership. This is the first people-leadership hire on the team and a builder's role: you will stand up the operating model, set the analytical bar, and grow the team as coverage scales. In This Role, You Will Lead, Coach, and Grow the E&E Insights Team • Build, manage, and develop a team of brand/pod analysts — owning hiring, onboarding, coaching, prioritization, and career growth. • Set the analytical and communication bar for the team and establish the operating rhythm from the ground up. • Create a collaborative, high-performing environment where a small team punches above its weight across a large brand surface. Own the Full-Funnel E&E Performance Narrative • Be accountable for trend monitoring, first-response investigations, and the full-funnel story (acquisition → engagement → retention → revenue) across the E&E brand portfolio. • Proactively surface opportunities and risks across brands and markets as well as influence strategy through data-driven recommendations. • As a player-coach — especially while the team is small — personally lead the most complex cross-brand investigations and executive readouts. Translate Measurement into Brand Action • Own the consumption-and-translation layer for E&E: turn PRISM incrementality, MMM, and HALO model outputs into clear test, optimization, and expansion recommendations. • Partner with Data Science on test design priorities and surface measurement needs on behalf of the brands. • Enforce analytical rigor and consistency across brand stakeholders without ceding ground. Translate Insights into Executive-Level Narratives • Own the E&E sections of leadership forums (QMO, WBR) and ad hoc leadership analysis, ensuring a consistent, unified read across ~17 brands. • Frame insights in terms of business impact, trade-offs, and recommended actions — the clear "what changed, why, so what, and now what." • Influence decision-making through strong storytelling and structured communication. Manage Stakeholder Relationships • Serve as the senior analytics partner to E&E brand and PMG
