The job description

About the Role

What if your voice could directly shape how AI understands real human speech? We're looking for professional voice actors and voice-over artists with an authentic Welsh accent to take part in paid studio recording sessions for a leading AI speech research project.

This is a rare, in-person contract opportunity for experienced voice talent based in Wales. You'll be recorded in a professional studio environment, performing natural conversational speech that helps AI systems learn to understand how real people talk — with all the rhythm, nuance, and character that makes Welsh English distinct.

This project does not involve voice cloning.

Organisation: Alignerr
Type: Contract
Session Format: In-person professional recording studio (locally assigned in Wales)
Session Length: 4 hours per session | 2–3 sessions total

What You'll Do

Record natural, conversational Welsh English speech in a professional studio setting
Participate in single-speaker sessions and dual-speaker dialogue recordings
Deliver realistic, unscripted-sounding dialogue across a variety of everyday scenarios
Follow light direction to vary tone, pacing, and delivery as needed
Bring authenticity, warmth, and professionalism to every session

Who You Are

A professional voice actor or voice-over artist with proven recording experience
A native or near-native Welsh English speaker — your accent is the real deal
Currently based in Wales and able to attend in-person studio sessions
Comfortable performing natural, conversational dialogue (not just scripted reads)
Reliable, professional, and receptive to direction
Fluent in English at a working level for communication

Nice to Have

Acting or performance background
Experience in broadcast, podcast production, or prior studio recording work
Comfort with improvised or dialogue-based performance styles

Why This Role

Competitive hourly pay for a skilled, specialised role
Work on a meaningful AI project with leading research teams
Contribute to technology that will shape how AI understands real human voices
A short, defined commitment — 2 to 3 sessions — with clear scope and structure
Your voice and accent play a direct, irreplaceable role in the outcome
