This is a high-impact role with a clear mandate to drive pipeline quality, candidate engagement, and strategic sourcing excellence across multiple brands and regions.
You’ll partner closely with recruiters and senior hiring managers, bringing creativity, rigour, and market insight to our most critical searches. This is a proactive role, focused on building pipelines, shaping sourcing strategy, and defining how Deliveroo attracts exceptional Product and Design talent globally.
Role Scope

- Collaborate with recruiters and hiring managers to refine requirements and improve strategy
- Design and execute inclusive, creative sourcing strategies to tap into diverse talent pools
- Drive consistency in talent identification and high-level candidate engagement
Key Responsibilities
Sourcing Strategy & Pipeline Development
- Develop and execute targeted sourcing strategies for Product and Design roles at all levels.
- Build sustainable, diverse talent pipelines that anticipate hiring demand rather than reacting to it.
- Leverage market mapping, competitive intelligence, and talent insights to guide sourcing approaches.
Candidate Engagement & Experience
- Craft personalised outreach that reflects Deliveroo’s mission and employer brand.
- Build long-term relationships with passive candidates—going beyond immediate recruitment.
- Champion a high-quality candidate experience, from initial contact to handover.
