Job Overview
We are seeking a highly motivated and detail-oriented Candidate Resourcer to join our growing team, focused on the US Life Sciences market. This role is ideal for a South African-based recruiter with proven experience sourcing talent across the United States within pharma, biotech, and broader life sciences sectors. You will play a critical role in identifying, engaging, and qualifying top-tier talent, ensuring an exceptional candidate experience while supporting high-performing delivery teams.
Key Responsibilities
● Proactively source high-quality candidates across the US life sciences market (pharma, biotech, medical devices, CROs).

● Accurately manage candidate data and activity within Bullhorn (or similar ATS).

● Advanced sourcing capability using LinkedIn Recruiter and Boolean search techniques.
● Familiarity with Bullhorn or similar ATS platforms.
