The job description
About the Role
What if your voice could directly shape how AI understands and communicates with millions of people across the UK and beyond? We're looking for professional voice actors and voice-over artists with authentic UK English accents to take part in paid studio recording sessions for a leading AI speech research project.
This is a contract role involving a small number of focused recording sessions. The work is straightforward, well-compensated, and contributes directly to improving how AI systems understand natural human speech.
- Organisation: Alignerr
- Type: Contract
- Session Format: In-person professional recording studio (locally assigned within the UK)
- Session Length: 4 hours per session (2–3 sessions total)
> Important: This project involves recording natural speech for AI training purposes only. It does not involve voice cloning.
What You'll Do
- Record natural, conversational UK English speech in a professional studio environment
- Participate in single-speaker sessions and dual-speaker dialogue recordings
- Deliver realistic, human-sounding speech — the goal is natural, not performative
- Follow light direction to vary tone, pacing, and delivery across different scenarios
- Bring your professional reliability and openness to feedback to each session
Who You Are
- A professional voice actor or voice-over artist with hands-on recording experience
- A native or near-native speaker of UK English with an authentic regional or standard British accent
- Currently based in the United Kingdom
- Comfortable recording natural conversation and dialogue — not just scripted reads
- Reliable, professional, and receptive to creative direction
- Fluent in English at a working level for session communication
Nice to Have
- Acting or performance background
- Experience in broadcast, podcast production, or commercial studio recording
- Familiarity with dialogue-based or conversational recording formats
Why Join Us
- Contribute directly to cutting-edge AI speech research alongside leading research labs
- Competitive contract compensation for a focused, time-limited commitment
- Work with a professional, organised team that respects your time and expertise
- Be part of meaningful technology development that shapes how AI understands real human voices
- Potential for additional sessions as new projects launch
