Creative Talent Sourcer/Recruiter – US, LATAM Coverage

Job Description:

• Source exceptional design and engineering talent across LinkedIn, portfolio platforms, social channels, creative communities, and other relevant networks
• Build pipelines across international markets, with a focus on US and LATAM talent pools
• Run and manage high-volume outreach campaigns across multiple channels
• Research portfolios and identify candidates aligned with TasteMakers’ quality bar
• Build and maintain sourcing pipelines for multiple concurrent roles
• Help identify strong creative and technical communities across North, Central, and South America
• Review applications against selection criteria — portfolio quality, skillset fit, rate, availability, and assessment readiness
• Manage early candidate engagement and communication across email and messaging platforms
• Support candidates across time zones with timely, thoughtful communication
• Build shortlists for project-specific staffing in collaboration with the Recruitment Lead
• Help assess candidate fit for international freelance and contract-based project work
• Coordinate the assessment process — distribute tests, track submissions, follow up, route results for review
• Support compliance and contracting workflows, including background checks and onboarding documentation
• Support expert onboarding logistics and project kick-off coordination
• Maintain clean, accurate records in our talent database and keep the pipeline organized as we scale

Requirements:

• 3–6+ years of recruiting, sourcing, or talent operations experience — ideally in creative, design, or tech recruiting
• Based in US/LATAM time zones. You can provide meaningful coverage across North, Central, and South American working hours
• You understand creative and technical talent. You can appreciate the nuances between types of designers — brand, product, art direction, web, UX, advanced new media — and have enough technical fluency to understand what frontend engineering and design engineering roles require
• Extremely organized. You can manage high volume without dropping balls — multiple projects, hundreds of candidates, dozens of open threads, all moving simultaneously
• Lightning fast. You respond quickly, move quickly, and do not let things sit
• Entrepreneurial and resourceful. You thrive in environments where processes are still being built. You see gaps and fill them without being asked
• Thrive under pressure. This is a fast-scaling operation with real deadlines and real clients. Some organized chaos comes with the territory — and you are energized by it
• Kind and candidate-obsessed. You care deeply about the expert experience. Every person in the network should feel respected, informed, and valued
• Tapped into the design community. You know where designers and engineers hang out online — X, LinkedIn, Reddit, Discord, Dribbble, Behance, portfolio sites, niche creative communities — and you are comfortable engaging in those spaces
• Globally minded. You have experience recruiting international freelance or contract talent across time zones, or you are excited to build that muscle quickly

Benefits:

• Remote-first: Work from anywhere
• International coverage: Help us expand recruiting and expert support across the Americas
• Path to full-time: For the right person, there is potential to transition to a permanent role
• Autonomy and ownership: This is not a button-pushing sourcing role — you will help shape how we find, evaluate, and onboard the best creative talent in the world
