In this role, you will partner closely with the Sourcing Team Lead to drive the top-of-funnel strategy for our most critical hires in the Africa region and beyond.

Designing Sourcing Strategy: You will design and execute advanced sourcing strategies for niche and senior roles, utilizing Boolean search, x-ray techniques, LinkedIn Recruiter, and local platforms

Engaging Candidates: You will craft high-touch, personalized outreach campaigns (email/InMail) that achieve high response rates from passive talent.
Gathering Market Intelligence: You will act as the "eyes and ears" of the market; gathering intelligence on competitor layoffs, salary trends, and shifting candidate motivations to share with the wider TA team.

Advanced knowledge of sourcing tools and ATS platforms (Greenhouse)
