Job Title: Talent Sourcing Specialist – EMEA & APAC
Hours: Full time, permanent
Location: London – Hybrid working
Introduction
Different skillset, different mindset. At PeopleScout, our creativity is redefining RPO. We blend fresh, industry-first thinking with deep in-house expertise - from occupational psychologists to social media strategists - to deliver talent solutions that inspire and perform. As a multi-award-winning RPO provider, we're redefining the future of recruitment across every industry, skill set, and geography.
The Role
We're looking for an experienced Talent Sourcing Specialist to join PeopleScout and support one of our global clients across EMEA and APAC.
This is a role for someone who genuinely loves the search. You'll spend much of your time identifying and engaging passive talent, building strong pipelines and finding creative ways to reach people for specialist and hard-to-fill roles across multiple international markets.
LinkedIn Recruiter will be a key part of your day-to-day, alongside Boolean search, talent mapping, competitor research and other sourcing techniques. You'll also bring valuable market insight to HR and recruitment teams, helping them understand talent availability and shape the best approach for each search.
This isn't primarily a full-cycle recruitment role – the focus is very much on proactive sourcing, initial candidate engagement and delivering high-quality talent into the recruitment process.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Who We Are Looking For
You'll be an experienced sourcer or recruiter with a real strength in proactive candidate identification and engagement. You're confident using LinkedIn Recruiter and advanced search techniques, know your way around Boolean searches and talent mapping, and enjoy getting under the skin of a difficult brief to find people others might miss.
As you'll be supporting hiring across international markets, professional fluency in French is essential. You'll need to be comfortable communicating confidently with candidates and stakeholders in French, as well as English, in a professional setting.
Experience sourcing technical, engineering or other specialist talent would be particularly valuable, ideally within a complex or regulated organisation. You'll also be comfortable juggling several searches at once and working across different countries, cultures and time zones.
Just as importantly, you'll be naturally curious, resourceful and persistent, with strong communication skills and a thoughtful approach to candidate outreach. You'll enjoy working independently while building collaborative relationships with HR, recruitment teams and stakeholders across a global business.
What's in it for me?
As a PeopleScout employee, you'll enjoy a wide range of company benefits, including:
- Time off to rest, recover or conquer items on the bucket list through our 27 days holiday, and our holiday purchase benefit where you can buy up to an additional 5 days
- Great company paid benefits including, health cash plan, life assurance, company pension and access to an Employee Assistance Programme.
- Look after your health and get cash back on your everyday healthcare costs with our flexible dental and cash plan benefits or grab some great discounts at your local gym.
- Other great flexible benefits such as a TechScheme, free mortgage advice, help with travel costs plus more.
- A strong care for the community and planet with opportunities to give back and care for our environment with eco-friendly benefits like our cycle to work scheme.
- Individual development plans with customised learning solutions, including clear career pathways designed to support individual growth and career advancement progress.
- A group of diverse, passionate people to socialise and build your career with.
