Overview

The Talent Community Manager - Life Sciences is a specialist recruiter within the Global Partner Operations Team focused on identifying, assessing, and onboarding high-quality linguistic talent across the CRO, Pharmaceutical, and Pharmacovigilance sectors. Reporting into the Lead Recruiter - Regulatory & Clinical, this role is the primary execution engine for Life Sciences recruitment - responsible for delivering against hiring targets, maintaining pipeline health, and ensuring a consistently high standard of candidate quality within their domain.

The Talent Community Manager is a recognised domain specialist who works with a high degree of independence on day-to-day recruitment activity. They apply structured assessment frameworks set by the Lead, execute sourcing strategies across specialist channels, and are trusted to make well-reasoned hiring decisions without close supervision. They also act as an internal point of reference for Life Sciences recruitment practice, contributing to process improvement and supporting the development of less experienced colleagues.

All work must reflect the Welocalize Four Pillars of Customer Service, Quality, Innovation, and Global Teamwork.

Main Responsibilities

Recruitment Delivery

  • Execute full-cycle recruitment for Life Sciences roles, including sourcing, screening, domain-specific assessment, and candidate submission, in line with targets and timelines set by the Lead Recruiter

  • Source candidates across specialist channels, including clinical trial registries, professional associations, regulatory networks, and direct outreach, using approaches appropriate to CRO, pharmaceutical, and pharmacovigilance profiles

  • Maintain a proactive, pipeline-first approach - building relationships with candidates ahead of active demand to protect against capacity risk in fast-moving regulated programmes

  • Apply assessment frameworks developed by the Lead to evaluate candidates against technical competency criteria, including GCP, ICH guidelines, regulatory submission experience, and pharmacovigilance workflows

  • Produce clear, well-evidenced candidate profiles and hiring recommendations, ensuring documentation meets the quality standards required for regulated client environments

  • Monitor your own pipeline health and flag risks early to the Lead, adjusting sourcing activity as needed to maintain delivery against programme milestones

Candidate Experience & Quality

  • Deliver a consistent, high-quality candidate experience throughout the recruitment lifecycle, reflective of the Welocalize brand and the professional standards expected within Life Sciences

  • Ensure all candidate records, assessments, and onboarding documentation are accurate, complete, and maintained in Lever ATS in line with team standards

  • Partner with Quality teams to incorporate performance data and test outcomes into hiring decisions, ensuring only appropriately qualified talent enters the Welocalize network

  • Support the onboarding of newly recruited candidates, ensuring a smooth handover and seamless integration into the relevant programme or service line

Stakeholder Collaboration

  • Work closely with the Lead Recruiter and internal stakeholders - including Delivery, Quality, and Operations - to understand hiring requirements and ensure recruitment activity is aligned to project needs

  • Provide accurate, timely updates on candidate pipeline status, sourcing progress, and any risks or blockers that may impact delivery timelines

  • Contribute domain knowledge and market insight to stakeholder discussions, supporting the Lead in translating requirements into effective recruitment briefs

  • Represent the team professionally in all candidate and stakeholder interactions, maintaining the communication standards and cultural awareness expected of a global function

Data & Reporting

  • Maintain accurate and up-to-date records across Lever ATS, ensuring data integrity at every stage of the recruitment process

  • Contribute to regular pipeline and performance reporting, providing the Lead with timely, accurate data on sourcing activity, time-to-fill, and candidate quality metrics

  • Use data from your own recruitment activity to identify patterns and surface improvement opportunities, bringing recommendations to the Lead for consideration

Continuous Improvement & Team Contribution

  • Identify practical improvements to day-to-day recruitment workflows and assessment processes, raising recommendations with the Lead and contributing to implementation where agreed

  • Share domain knowledge and recruitment best practice with less experienced colleagues, contributing to a culture of continuous learning within the team

  • Contribute to team documentation, knowledge bases, and training materials that build shared capability across the Life Sciences function

  • Support special projects and cross-functional initiatives as directed by the Lead, delivering with autonomy and a consistently high standard of execution

Skills and Requirements

Essential

  • Minimum 5 years of experience in recruitment or talent acquisition, with demonstrable specialisation in Life Sciences, CRO, pharmaceutical, or healthcare sectors

  • Working knowledge of the Life Sciences translation and localisation landscape, including familiarity with clinical trial documentation, regulatory submissions, drug safety narratives, and pharmacovigilance workflows

  • Familiarity with relevant regulatory frameworks and quality standards, including GCP, ICH guidelines, and FDA/EMA requirements as they apply to linguistic and content services

  • Proven ability to assess specialist candidates against technical and domain-specific criteria, with experience applying structured assessment frameworks

  • Solid sourcing skills across multiple channels, with demonstrable success identifying and engaging passive talent within niche scientific and regulatory communities

  • Experience managing full-cycle recruitment processes independently, with a track record of delivering against hiring targets to a high-quality standard

  • Working knowledge of Lever ATS or an equivalent applicant tracking system, including pipeline management and candidate record maintenance

  • Clear, professional communication skills with the ability to represent the team credibly in candidate and stakeholder interactions

  • Detail-oriented working style with strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple active pipelines simultaneously

Desirable

  • A background in life sciences, biomedical sciences, pharmacy, or a related discipline - or equivalent professional experience within a CRO or pharmaceutical environment

  • Familiarity with linguistic quality management frameworks as applied to regulated content, including back-translation, reconciliation, and other standards

  • Experience recruiting across multiple therapeutic areas, including oncology, rare diseases, cardiology, or neurology
