Team Leader- Talent Sourcing

Team Leader Talent Sourcing, level 3

Purpose and Position in Organisation

Talent Sourcers play a key role in our clients success by partnering with Hiring Managers and Recruiters and developing effective, consultative, professional relationships with them. Through asking the right questions to ensure a detailed understanding of the client and each role, and by leveraging data, historic hiring trends, and market analysis, Talent Sourcers develop bespoke sourcing strategies and then use a range of tools and techniques to find the best talent in the market. Talent Sourcers are brand ambassadors for our clients, bringing each opportunity to life with candidates in a compelling and authentic way to ensure they are qualified, interested, and engaged before being presented to the Hiring Manager. A Talent Sourcing Team Leader is a talent acquisition expert and trusted adviser and will partner with senior stakeholders to fully understand and influence their recruitment requirements and strategies. They drive team engagement, leading, coaching, developing, and inspiring their team to find and deliver high-calibre talent for our clients and an exceptional experience to our candidates.
