Join our World of Talent.

Global, culturally diverse, inclusive, and innovative - welcome to AMS, where talent is our world. Over the last two decades, AMS has redefined the landscape of talent outsourcing and consulting. From pioneering the concept of RPO to continually revolutionising how organisations approach talent acquisition, AMS stands as a world leader in the industry.

The Role

Are you a curious, strategic thinker with a passion for connecting exceptional talent to exciting opportunities? Do you thrive in a fast-paced, tech-enabled environment where your sourcing skills make a real impact? If so, we want to hear from you!



As a Proactive Talent Sourcer, you'll be at the forefront of our talent acquisition strategy, identifying and engaging top-tier passive candidates across two key streams:

You'll work closely with our Recruiters, acting as a brand ambassador and trusted advisor. This is a hands-on, insight-led role where your ability to build trust and drive conversion will be key.

Key Accountabilities

What you'll be doing:

Craft and execute multi-channel sourcing strategies using tools like LinkedIn Recruiter, ATS/CRM, and niche platforms. Build persona-led approaches tailored to candidate motivations and career drivers. Engage authentically with candidates across email, phone, and social channels. Deliver consultative conversations to assess interest, fit, and alignment. Collaborate with recruiters to convert pipeline talent into shortlist-ready candidates. Present candidates with context, including career fit and market positioning. Champion inclusive sourcing practices and maintain balanced pipelines. Share market insights and hiring intelligence to shape strategy. Maintain warm talent communities for future hiring success.
