DATAmundi is a global leader in high-quality data services, including data labeling, annotation, benchmarking, and data enrichment.

About the Role:

We are looking for a Talent Specialist with expertise and hands-on experience in sourcing talent for highly challenging Data Collection and AI-related projects. Someone who has successfully delivered difficult vendor sourcing projects and can execute on the strategies, channels, and methods used to find hard-to-reach contributors. Experience limited to recruiting annotators or supporting standard AI projects would not be sufficient, instead, we are interested in candidates who have sourced contributors for niche, complex, or highly specialized projects, for example finding participants in rare languages, specific regions, unique demographics, or other difficult-to-access populations.

Our ideal candidate is someone who can genuinely impress us with their knowledge and problem-solving approach. We want a person who can confidently tell us stories about projects where finding participants seemed nearly impossible, yet they successfully delivered results.
