## Description

Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology.

We are looking for a high-caliber Leadership Talent Sourcer who will act as a strategic talent advisor and scout for our leadership team. This is not a standard high-volume sourcing role. You will sit at the intersection of executive search, advanced technology, and business development. To be successful, you must have a sales-driven mindset, a genuine passion for emerging technology, and a deep understanding of the highly complex defense contracting (GovCon) and Department of Defense (DoD) ecosystems.

**Responsibilities**

- Talent Identification: Utilize advanced sourcing techniques, market research, and competitive intelligence to map target companies and uncover passive, high-caliber Business Development, Capture Management, and Sales leaders.

- Candidate Engagement: "Sell the sellers." Initiate and develop meaningful relationships with sophisticated growth talent through highly tailored messaging, leveraging a deep understanding of our mission and technology.

- Pipeline Development: Build and maintain robust pipelines for critical business development roles, ensuring a steady flow of high-quality candidates ready to drive our market capture strategy.

- Collaboration: Partner closely with hiring managers and recruiters to understand specific capture targets, customer profiles (e.g., DoD, federal, commercial), and align sourcing strategies with broader business growth goals.

- Process Improvement: Analyze sourcing metrics, response rates, and market data to refine outreach strategies and optimize talent acquisition workflows for growth roles.

**Required Qualifications**

- Experience: Minimum of 6 years in sourcing or recruiting, with a proven track record of successfully identifying and hiring for Business Development, Capture, Sales, or Account Management roles.

- BD & SG&A Acumen: Deep understanding of the business development lifecycle (e.g., pipeline development, proposal management, capture strategy) and experience engaging top-tier sales and growth talent.

- Communication Skills: Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with the unique ability to engage, influence, and build credibility with persuasive, relationship-driven candidates.

- Analytical Mindset: Proficient in using data-driven approaches to evaluate sourcing effectiveness, map talent markets, and make informed decisions.

- Tool Proficiency: Familiarity with applicant tracking systems, LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean search techniques, and other modern sourcing tools.

- Collaborative Spirit: Strong interpersonal skills, with the ability to work effectively in a team-oriented, fast-paced environment.

**Preferred Qualifications**

- Government BD & DoD Acumen: Deep understanding of the unique complexities of Government Business Development (GovCon).

- Government/DoD Sales Familiarity: Understanding of the federal procurement process, defense acquisition cycles, or military customer demographics.

- Tooling Experience: Expertise using Greenhouse, Gem, various AI tools, and LinkedIn Recruiter.

- Independent & Proactive: Highly self-sufficient with the ability to work autonomously and take initiative in mapping out niche talent pools.

- Resilient & Creative Problem Solver: Demonstrates flexibility in tackling hard-to-fill requisitions, quickly troubleshooting outreach strategies, and devising innovative sourcing solutions on the fly.

- Strong Sense of Ownership: Takes full accountability for pipeline health and stays aligned with the business mission.

- Low Ego, High Curiosity: Values continuous learning over being right, embraces honest feedback, and views market feedback as an opportunity for growth and improvement.
