Underdog Sports

Talent Acquisition Sourcing Partner (Contract)

Job Description

We’re Underdog.

The fastest-growing sports gaming company – ever.

We build innovative games, products, and experiences for American sports fans.

We’re here to shake up the fastest growing industry with bold ideas, custom-built tech, and the drive to win.

Founded in 2020, our team has built four of today’s most widely played fantasy games and launched the Underdog Sportsbook – built entirely in-house with our own technology. That means we control our product, move fast, and create experiences you won’t find anywhere else.

In just over two years, we’ve reached over a $1.2 billion valuation, with investors like BlackRock, Spark Capital, SV Angel, Mark Cuban, Kevin Durant, and Adam Schefter. And we’re just getting started.

At Underdog, we believe that sports are for everyone. Join us.

Please note: This is a 6 month contract position.

What you’ll do:

  • Source and engage with top-tier talent across non-technical roles using platforms like LinkedIn, job boards, networking events, and other innovative sourcing methods.
  • Collaborate closely with Talent Acquisition Partners and hiring managers to deeply understand hiring needs, team dynamics, and long-term goals.
  • Conduct initial candidate screenings to assess skills, qualifications, and alignment with company culture.
  • Act as an ambassador for the company, sharing a compelling brand story to attract high-quality talent.
  • Maintain accurate and up-to-date candidate records using the Applicant Tracking System (ATS), such as Greenhouse, ensuring a seamless and transparent hiring pipeline.
  • Provide actionable insights by compiling and analyzing hiring metrics, identifying areas for improvement, and proposing creative solutions.
  • Participate in regular hiring team syncs to share pipeline updates, insights, and candidate progress.

Who you are:

  • 3+ years of experience in sourcing or recruiting, with expertise in identifying and attracting marketing and corporate talent.
  • Strong ability to assess candidate qualifications, both technically and culturally.
  • Proven success in building trusted relationships with hiring teams, acting as a strategic partner in the recruitment process.
  • Experience contributing to talent acquisition projects or initiatives that have driven impactful results.
  • Metrics-driven mindset with the ability to navigate fast-paced, dynamic environments effectively.
  • A proactive and resourceful team player who thrives in solving complex hiring challenges.
