Startup Talent Sourcer x3

Startup Talent Sourcer

Fueling the talent engine that powers North America’s fastest-growing startups.

Prospects+ builds with the most ambitious early-stage startups — helping them hire and scale faster with elite tech talent across Canada and the U.S., from founding engineers and AI product leaders to bold designers shaping the future.

We build with venture-backed startups across AI, machine learning, and emerging tech — teams creating what’s next.

Every startup we work with is building something new — and behind every product launch, AI breakthrough, or Series A milestone is someone we helped find. That’s what you’ll power here.

We’re known for moving fast, building authentic relationships, and delivering results that drive real growth for both clients and candidates.
We’re not a typical agency — we’re startup people helping startup people hire better, faster, and smarter.

Now we’re growing again — and we’re looking for three Talent Sourcers who are hungry to build, learn fast, and help fuel the next wave of startup success.

Why This Role Matters

At Prospects+, sourcing isn’t a support function — it’s the heartbeat of how we scale.

Every founder we partner with has a vision they’re racing to build. Your job? Find the people who can make that vision real.

As a Talent Sourcer, you’ll power the engine that fuels early-stage growth — finding, engaging, and qualifying exceptional talent for some of North America’s most ambitious startups.

You’ll work hand-in-hand with our recruiters to keep pipelines strong, outreach sharp, and candidate experiences seamless.

And because we move fast, you’ll see your impact immediately — every shortlist you build will help a startup land their next game-changing hire.

This role is for someone who’s equal parts strategic thinker and hunter — someone who loves tools, tech, and people, and wants to make an actual dent in how startups hire.

What You’ll Own

• Maintaining 100% clean data and candidate tracking in Ashby

• Move fast, stay accountable, and get energy from progress

• Want to grow into recruiting, client success, or growth ops

✨ What You’ll Get

• Competitive base + commission + performance bonuses (we reward hard work + moving the dial with our growth)

• Remote-first flexibility (Canada-based + ok to work EST hours)

• Dedicated tools budget to build your sourcing stack

• Access to cutting-edge AI recruiting tools and real-time training

• A tight-knit, zero-fluff team that celebrates wins, experiments weekly, and learns fast

• Direct line to our founder and senior team — your work has visibility and impact

• You’ll grow fast here — into recruiting, client success, or growth ops — and see your impact on how early-stage startups scale.

This Isn’t for Everyone

If you’re looking for a slow, admin-heavy sourcing role — this isn’t it.

You’ll be running point, testing, learning, and helping us scale something real. We’re a small, mighty team that runs fast and moves with intention.

If you crave ownership, speed, and seeing your work directly impact growth, you’ll fit right in.
