Match Group has announced the appointment of Steven Bailey as its Chief Financial Officer, effective March 1, 2025. Bailey, who currently serves as Senior Vice President of Financial Planning and Business Operations, will succeed Gary Swidler, who will continue as President of Match Group. Bailey has been with the company since 2012, and his extensive expertise in financial strategy and operational leadership across Match Group’s portfolio makes him well-suited for the role. As CFO, Bailey will oversee investor relations, accounting, tax, and treasury, while continuing his current responsibilities in business technology and operational functions.
Match Group, known for its wide-ranging portfolio of digital brands including Tinder, Hinge, and OkCupid, offers services in over 40 languages worldwide. The company will host its first Investor Day on December 11, 2024, where senior executives, including CEO Bernard Kim, current CFO Swidler, and Bailey, will outline the company's long-term vision and growth strategies. Bailey’s promotion comes at a critical time as Match Group continues to innovate and expand within the dating industry. Both Swidler and Kim have expressed strong confidence in Bailey’s ability to lead the company’s financial strategy and contribute to its continued success.
