Talent Sourcing Specialist

Own the top of the pipeline — map, engage and warm passive candidates for the roles our clients hire again and again.

Remote · India Full-time IST working hours ₹3.5–6.0 LPA Staffing & Recruiting

About the role

Planfru builds always-on talent pipelines and warm talent pools for the roles our clients hire repeatedly. As a Talent Sourcing Specialist, you own the top of that pipeline: you find where target talent lives, start real conversations with passive candidates, and keep the pool warm through a calm nurturing cadence — so that when a role finally opens, the shortlist is already there.

This is an early, high-ownership role working directly with our founder. You'll help shape how we source and nurture at scale.

What you'll do

  • Map the 3–5 repeat roles for each client — companies, teams and adjacent skills where the right talent actually lives.
  • Reach passive candidates with a reason to talk, not a job ad. Relationship first, role later.
  • Run a light, respectful nurturing cadence — useful touches every few weeks, never spam.
  • Keep pool data clean and readable, and report on pool health and readiness.
  • Activate the pool the moment a req opens, moving fast on people who already know the team.
  • Contribute to our own talent community and employer-brand content.

What we're looking for

  • 1–3 years in sourcing, recruiting, or talent research (agency or in-house).
  • Genuinely enjoys building relationships over months — patient, human, and organised.
  • Strong written English and a warm, honest outreach style.
  • Comfortable with LinkedIn sourcing, boolean search, and keeping structured candidate notes.
  • Self-directed and reliable in a remote, IST-hours setup.

We care more about how you think about candidate relationships than about any single tool on your CV. If you're close on experience but clearly proactive, apply anyway.

What we offer

  • Transparent salary: ₹3,50,000–₹6,00,000 per year (₹3.5–6.0 LPA), based on experience.
  • Fully remote within India, working IST hours.
  • Direct mentorship from the founder and real ownership as an early hire.
  • A calm, no-fire-drill culture — we run our own hiring the way we teach clients to.
