The posting

About the Role

As a Strategic Sourcing Lead, you’ll lead a new global sourcing hub focused on finding the right contributors for complex AI projects that require specialized or hard-to-reach talent across a wide range of domains, from translation and localization to legal, medical, scientific, and technical fields.

This is a strategic, hands-on role within Fulfillment. You’ll define how the hub operates, develop the team, and partner with Recruitment and Delivery to build sourcing strategies ranging from complex searches to high-volume scaling. The team will work in a data-informed and AI-enabled environment, using technology to enhance research, outreach, analysis, and sourcing efficiency.

Your Impact

  • Design and execute creative sourcing strategies for specialized, hard-to-reach, and high-volume needs.
  • Partner with Recruitment and Delivery to assess requirements, sourcing feasibility, and project needs.
  • Build relationships with production stakeholders and communicate risks, timelines, and expectations.
  • Use sourcing and conversion data to identify bottlenecks, test approaches, and improve funnel performance.
  • Embed AI and automation into sourcing workflows to improve research, outreach, analysis, efficiency, and scalability.

What You Bring

  • 5+ years of experience in sourcing, recruitment, talent acquisition, or a related field.
  • Experience leading or mentoring sourcing teams in a fast-paced environment.
  • Strong stakeholder management, communication, and influencing skills across teams.
  • Strong analytical skills and the ability to use data to guide sourcing decisions.
  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience.

Nice to Haves

  • Experience sourcing for AI, data, or crowdsourcing projects.
  • Experience sourcing linguists, translators, or other language profiles across markets.
  • Experience working with global or distributed teams across time zones.
  • Flexibility to work regular U.S. hours or provide U.S. overlap when working in a different time zone.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
