Talent Sourcer in London

A World-Changing Company. Palantir builds the world’s leading software for data-driven decisions and operations. By bringing the right data to the people who need it, our platforms empower our partners to develop lifesaving drugs, forecast supply chain disruptions, locate missing children, and more.

The Role. Talent Strategists at Palantir don't work from a boilerplate requisition list. They embed with their teams, learn what exceptional actually looks like for a given role, and hire the Engineers building the future. As a Technical Sourcer, you'll support that work. You'll partner with Talent Strategists and Hiring Managers to build the pipelines and manage the process for some of our hardest-to-fill roles. The job is equal parts research, relationship-building, and attunement — figuring out where the right people are, what's going to resonate with them, and how to get them in the door. This is a 12-month fixed term contract role. It moves fast, the priorities shift, and the standard is high. You will start with two weeks of onboarding before jumping into the deep end.

Core Responsibilities:

• Source passive candidates through direct outreach, referral networks, research, and sourcing tools.
• Continuously reassess what's working.
• Review inbound applicants and referrals, screening candidates with a genuine eye for fit, not just credentials.
• Own the candidate experience from first outreach through to pre-offer stage.
• Maintain meticulous candidate records within our ATS.
• Share pipeline data and market insights with the broader Talent team proactively.

What We Value:

• You generate solutions, not excuses.
• You are data-driven about your pipeline and honest about what's working.
• You communicate with clarity and conviction to candidates and internal stakeholders.
• You operate without supervision and without complaint in an environment where priorities shift and the bar does not.
• You are genuinely curious about technology and the people who build it.
• You have experience recruiting within defence or similar sectors.

What We Require:

• 1+ years of experience in recruiting, sourcing, talent-spotting, or a recruiting-adjacent role.
• Experience using an ATS to source, track, and manage candidates.
• Extraordinary interpersonal skills and an instinct for building relationships quickly.
