About Ektis

Ektis is a management consultancy firm that provides transformation, advisory, and execution services across the Middle East Banking sector. The firm focuses on strategy, operations, digital, and people, aiming to build trust and create sustainable impact. Since its launch, Ektis has expanded to over 100 employees within six months, with a strong presence in KSA and a growing regional footprint. The company plans significant scaling by 2027, expanding both its capabilities and regional reach.

Role Overview

Ektis is seeking a Sourcing Senior Specialist to lead proactive, direct sourcing and headhunting efforts, initially focusing on the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) and supporting broader regional expansion. This full-time role, based in Riyadh, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, is delivery-focused and involves identifying, mapping, and engaging passive talent directly. The specialist will run targeted headhunting campaigns and execute team lift-outs and multi-hire initiatives from competitors, working alongside the Talent Acquisition Lead to manage the sourcing engine.

Key Responsibilities

Identify, research, and proactively approach passive candidates through direct outreach, headhunting, referrals, and networking for live roles across all business areas.
Build detailed maps of target companies, teams, and individuals across KSA and the wider region, maintaining intelligence on market movement and compensation benchmarks.
Plan and execute team lift-outs and multi-hires from competitors, identifying intact teams and managing discreet, multi-threaded outreach.
Develop and maintain warm, segmented talent pipelines for priority and recurring roles to reduce reliance on external agencies.
Conduct initial conversations to qualify candidate motivation, fit, and availability, and maintain engagement with passive candidates over longer cycles.
Collaborate with hiring managers and the Talent Acquisition Lead to take detailed briefs, calibrate profiles, and provide real-time market insights.
Utilize LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean search, talent databases, referrals, and other channels to source talent not responsive to advertised roles.
Support sourcing for graduate, early careers, and internship hiring, including building university relationships and identifying emerging talent pools.
Track sourcing activity and pipeline metrics, using data to refine targeting and report on progress.
Ensure sourcing activities comply with company policies, Middle East labor considerations, and DEI principles, maintaining a professional candidate experience.

Candidate Profile and Requirements

The ideal candidate will possess 5-10 years of hands-on sourcing or research experience, preferably gained in executive search, RPO, an agency, or an in-house sourcing team. Experience with the Middle East market and a working understanding of hiring in KSA are essential. Exposure to consulting, professional services, or financial services is an advantage. The role requires a strong ability in market mapping and talent intelligence, with confidence in direct headhunting outreach and managing team lift-outs discreetly. Candidates should be fluent in modern sourcing tools and techniques, including Boolean search and LinkedIn Recruiter, and adopt a data-informed mindset to improve sourcing effectiveness while maintaining a human touch in candidate engagement.

Work Environment

This role operates within a growing, entrepreneurial environment where the ability to thrive amidst ambiguity is valued. The position is focused on delivery and sourcing, requiring a candidate who is motivated to be deeply engaged in the market daily and contribute to building the sourcing capability that supports the firm's regional growth.
