Senior Talent Sourcer

Position Title: Senior Talent Sourcer

Position Location: Remote: work virtually anywhere in the United States

Job Summary

We are hiring our first dedicated Talent Sourcer: an expert who finds niche, hard-to-fill technical and skilled trades talent. You will own name generation and outreach that results in hires. You bring your own point of view and methodology, ramp quickly, and tell hiring teams the truth about the talent market. As we grow, you can help formalize the sourcing function and lead additional sourcers.

Priorities shift frequently, from full days on one urgent pipeline to splitting time across several searches. Initial priorities include electrical, ICT and mechanical engineering (data center and mission critical), construction and program management, MEP systems integration, commissioning, and substation roles.

Essential Functions

Proactive Sourcing & Pipelines (Primary responsibility)

• Partner with recruiters and hiring managers across the QC Ecosystem brands.
• Find and engage passive technical and skilled trades talent using Boolean and X-ray search, professional networks, communities and non-traditional sources beyond LinkedIn.
• Deliver high-volume name generation on short timelines, rotating between roles as priorities change.
• Review inbound applicants for evergreen roles with AI-assisted screening and log the best in a tracker.
• Run personalized multi-touch outreach, then hand interested candidates to recruiters using self-scheduling links. This role is top of funnel, not recruiter screens.
• Source effectively around the company’s restricted-employer list.
• Keep candidate records accurate in the ATS and CRM.

Recruiter & Hiring Manager Partnership

• Kick off and calibrate each search with the recruiter and hiring manager together, weekly and as needed.
• Agree with TA leadership on which roles are urgent, evergreen, or heavy on inbound.
• Share market intelligence on talent supply, compensation and competitors.
• Track pipeline health, source effectiveness and conversion; sourced-candidate-to-hire results are the primary measure of success.
• Support employer brand, process improvement and cross-functional TA work.

Building the Sourcing Function

• Set sourcing standards, playbooks, search strings and outreach templates from scratch.
• Define a cadence for evergreen versus urgent searches, and coach recruiters on sourcing.
• Evaluate and implement sourcing tools and AI-assisted workflows.
• Promote inclusive sourcing and compliance with employment laws and data privacy.
• Grow into managing additional sourcers as the team expands.

Position Requirements

• 5+ years in a dedicated sourcing or full-cycle recruiting role, with quantifiable, proven results sourcing passive talent (names generated, response rates, sourced hires) and experience building sourcing processes as an individual contributor. Multi-business-unit support preferred.
• Experience sourcing niche, highly technical engineering and/or skilled trades roles. Similar roles in other industries are welcome if you can apply them here; generalist or software-only sourcing experience is not enough.
• Advanced Boolean and X-ray skills across LinkedIn Recruiter, trade and professional associations, licensing and certification bodies, industry forums and other talent databases, with creativity for skilled trades.
• Current use of AI in sourcing workflows, and a commitment to prioritizing it to streamline pipeline generation and work more efficiently.
• Direct experience working with hiring managers and business leaders, and clear, compelling outreach writing.
• Strong attention to detail and pace across multiple requisitions and job titles.
• Adaptability, grit and a collaborative mindset in saturated talent markets.
• Proficient in Rippling or a similar ATS/HRIS and recruiting CRM, with intermediate skills using MS Office Suite.
• Ability to work successfully in a remote, high-accountability environment with competing priorities.
• Genuine passion for sourcing and a desire to build a career in it.
• Preferred: data center or mission-critical sourcing; familiarity with skilled trades, commissioning and construction management; project management; a recognized talent acquisition certification (e.g., AIRS CIR, CDR, SHRM-CP).
