About Mercor

Mercor's mission is to organize human intelligence to power the AI economy. We partner with leading AI labs and enterprises to provide the human intelligence essential to AI development. Our vast talent network trains frontier AI models in the same way teachers teach students: by sharing knowledge, experience, and context that can't be captured in code alone. Today, more than 30,000 experts in our network collectively earn over $2 million a day.

Mercor is creating a new category of work where expertise powers AI advancement. Achieving this requires an ambitious, fast‑paced and deeply committed team. You’ll work alongside researchers, operators, and AI companies at the forefront of shaping the systems that are redefining society. Mercor is a profitable Series C company valued at $10 billion. We work in‑person five days a week in our San Francisco, NYC, or London offices.

About The Role

As a Growth Associate, you’ll connect leading AI companies with the specialized experts they need—from engineers to medical professionals—to train and evaluate cutting‑edge models. Your work will directly drive millions in revenue and shape the future of AI.

What You’ll Do

Source & recruit experts: Use platforms like LinkedIn Recruiter and Sales Navigator to find, vet, and recruit top professionals across multiple industries.
Scale sourcing channels: Discover and experiment with new sourcing channels to expand reach and attract diverse talent.
Build relationships: Engage and maintain strong connections with experts to ensure long‑term collaboration.
Manage talent pipelines: Oversee multiple recruiting and sourcing pipelines to deliver qualified experts at scale.
Collaborate across teams: Partner with Project Managers, Product, and Engineering to improve sourcing workflows and deliver high‑quality results.
Drive growth: Your recruiting and sourcing efforts will be a core driver of Mercor’s rapid expansion.

What We’re Looking For

1‑2 years of prior experience in lead generation, outbound sales, or recruiting.
Strong familiarity with LinkedIn Recruiter / Sales Navigator and other sourcing tools.
Comfortable driving high conversion rates and managing funnels effectively.
Excellent communication and relationship‑building skills.
A track record of thriving in fast‑paced, results‑driven environments (startups, consulting, finance, or similar).
A motivated, goal‑oriented mindset with the resilience to meet ambitious targets.
