About The Role
We’re looking for a Sales Sourcer to help shape the next chapter of G2’s go-to-market hiring strategy. This is a newly created and highly visible role on our Talent Acquisition team — ideal for someone who’s excited to build, experiment, and grow in a fast-paced, evolving environment.
You’ll partner closely with our Revenue Talent Acquisition Manager and Sales leadership to proactively identify and engage exceptional talent across our Revenue organization (including Sales, Customer Success, and Account Management roles). You’ll also have the opportunity to take on special projects, pilot new sourcing initiatives, and contribute to broader recruiting and talent brand efforts as G2 continues to evolve its hiring strategy.
If you thrive in environments with some ambiguity, enjoy problem-solving, and are motivated by the impact of connecting great talent with meaningful opportunities, then this role is for you!
In This Role, You Will:

Proactively identify and engage high-quality Sales and Revenue candidates through multiple sourcing channels (LinkedIn, referrals, events, online communities, etc.).
Build and maintain a robust pipeline of diverse, qualified candidates for current and future hiring needs.
Research target companies, markets, and talent pools to identify patterns and opportunities for outreach.
Craft personalized outreach messages that reflect G2’s brand voice and excite candidates about our mission and growth story.
Partner with Talent Acquisition Partners to ensure a seamless handoff of qualified candidates into the recruiting process.
Strategic Partnership & Reporting (25%)
Collaborate with hiring managers and recruiters to understand role priorities, target profiles, and market dynamics.
Present pipeline updates, talent insights, and sourcing performance metrics to business leaders.
Provide recommendations based on data, including outreach conversion rates, candidate quality, and diversity representation.
Partner with the talent acquisition team to continuously refine sourcing strategies based on market feedback and business needs.
Special Projects & Continuous Improvement (15%)
Contribute to initiatives that improve team efficiency, scalability, and candidate experience (e.g., sourcing automation, CRM best practices, or process documentation).
Experiment with new sourcing tools, platforms, or communities to identify untapped talent pools.
Collaborate cross-functionally on ad hoc projects within Talent Acquisition or the broader People Team, such as employer branding or diversity programs.
Take ownership of projects that align with your career interests and support team goals.
Minimum Qualifications:
We realize applying for jobs can feel daunting at times. Even if you don’t check all the boxes in the job description, we encourage you to apply anyway.
2+ years of experience sourcing Sales professionals across a range of levels and functions.
Demonstrated success identifying and engaging passive talent across multiple channels.
Strong business acumen and the ability to articulate the nuances of different Sales and Revenue roles.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills; able to represent G2’s brand with authenticity and enthusiasm.
Experience managing candidates and pipelines within an ATS (Ashby experience preferred).
Comfort working in an evolving environment with shifting priorities and the ability to pivot quickly.
What Can Help Your Application Stand Out:
Experience sourcing within SaaS or high-growth tech companies.
Familiarity with data-driven recruiting metrics (pipeline conversion, response rates)
Curiosity about talent strategy, employer branding, or recruitment operations and an interest in expanding your skills in those areas.
