Trust & Safety Policy Manager

Trust & Safety Policy Manager

I'm upgrading this to Tread Carefully based on their wisdom, but I'm still concerned that the junior title and experience requirements coupled with the pretty senior job duties is not a great mix for success.

Steph's Notes:

We are looking for a Trust & Safety Policy Manager to support our Policy Team. Reporting to the Director, Global Policy, you will oversee an existing team of Policy Analysts to develop, maintain, and implement our Trust & Safety policies.

I see Tinder is continuing the trend of down-leveling T&S roles. This really needs to have a more senior title.

Develop, refine, and operationalize Tinder’s user policies to ensure that they can be enforced consistently and at scale around the world

Okay, so what's the Director, Global Policy doing?

In collaboration with the Director, establish and execute on a strategic vision for the team and manage ongoing policy related projects

No, but seriously. What's the Director, Global Policy actually doing?

Build strong relationships with Product, Engineering, Comms, Marketing, Legal and other partners and act as the Policy Consultant .

....

Act as a global escalation point of contact for policy questions and handle internal communications for policy issues

REALLY REALLY. WHAT IS THE DIRECTOR, GLOBAL POLICY DOING?

Build and articulate policy strategy and changes to internal stakeholders

I recognize that tree.

3-4 years of Trust & Safety or other relevant experience, at least 1 year in Trust & Safety Policy
1-2 years of experience managing or supervising other people's work

Okay, my original reaction to this was quite a bit stronger, but I reached out to a T&S friend who reviewed this job listing and wasn't that worried by the lower requirements.

I'm upgrading this to Tread Carefully based on their wisdom, but I'm still concerned that the junior title and experience requirements coupled with the pretty senior job duties is not a great mix for success.
