Your Journey
ROMEO is looking for a new Head of Communications. You will be part of a platform that connects more than 3 million Gay, Bi, Queer and Trans people around the world for Dates, Friends, and Love.
Even though we are one of the big players, let's be honest: when you ask someone about Gay Dating Apps, we are not the first mentioned. We would love to change that - not only because we are a company, but because most of us are part of the rainbow family ourselves. We have been online for more than 20 years, and while the situation for most of us has improved in many countries, how did it happen that most of our big competitors are now based in homophobic countries? We would love to be the European counterpart that keeps the values of freedom, security, and sex-positivity alive.
We’re looking for someone who shares our vision of a world where our rainbow family has the same opportunities for life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness as everyone else. For us, this isn’t about adding more letters to LGBTQ+ or more colors to the rainbow flag - it’s about standing firmly for equality and dignity for all. More importantly, do you have the courage to say so on camera?
If your answer is yes, keep reading!
