Talent Sourcing Specialist

• Find senior and specialist talent who fit target profiles (leaders, founders, fundraisers, policy specialists, campaigners) and bring them into AAC’s programmes and career advising.
• Design and run outreach that earns a reply from experienced professionals: personalised LinkedIn outreach, warm introductions, and direct approaches grounded in research about the person.
• Build outreach systems that compound: referral pathways, peer introductions, and alumni networks that surface new leaders over time.
• Develop and own AAC’s approach to reaching senior talent: which channels, sectors, and methods to prioritise.

The people you bring in could run organisations, start them, or shape policy that affects billions of animals, and most of them have never heard that animal advocacy needs them.

• A track record of sourcing, headhunting, or proactive outreach that got hard-to-reach people to respond.
• Excellent written communication; adapts tone to audience.
• Strong research instinct; digs into someone's background to find specific reasons they might care.
• High agency; builds function from close to nothing.
