As Senior Sourcer at Fanatics Collectibles, you will own the architecture and ongoing evolution of our talent CRM - transforming it from a database into a living, pre-vetted bench of comp-aligned candidates ready to activate the moment a search opens. You will work across six capability archetypes, building a bench model that eliminates cold starts and gives our recruiting team a genuine competitive advantage in every search. Beyond CRM ownership, you'll serve as a strategic sourcing partner on our most complex, hardest-to-fill searches - leveraging the bench you've built, our internal referral pool, LinkedIn Recruiter, and the best AI sourcing tools available to find, engage, and deliver exceptional talent for roles that matter.
