The job description

About the Role

What if your voice could directly shape how AI understands and communicates with millions of people? We're looking for professional voice actors and voice-over artists with authentic Scottish accents to take part in paid in-person studio recording sessions for a leading AI speech research project.

This isn't voice cloning. This is about capturing the real rhythm, tone, and texture of natural Scottish speech — and your voice is exactly what's needed.

Organisation: Alignerr
Type: Contract
Session Format: 4-hour sessions (2–3 sessions total)
Location: Professional recording studio (assigned locally in Scotland)

What You'll Do

Record natural, conversational Scottish English speech in a professional studio environment
Participate in single-speaker sessions and dual-speaker dialogue recordings
Deliver realistic, human-sounding speech that feels unscripted and authentic
Follow light direction on tone, pacing, and delivery to capture a range of speech styles
Bring your full voice acting craft to sessions that genuinely matter

Who You Are

A professional voice actor or voice-over artist with hands-on recording experience
A native or near-native Scottish English speaker — your accent is the key qualification
Currently based in Scotland
Comfortable performing natural dialogue and conversational speech on cue
Reliable, punctual, and receptive to direction in a studio setting
Fluent in English at a working level for communication and direction

Nice to Have

Acting or performance background
Prior broadcast, podcast, or commercial studio recording experience
Experience with dialogue-based or conversational recording formats

Why This Role

Work on meaningful AI research alongside leading AI labs and research teams
Your voice contributes to technology that will be heard by millions
Competitive hourly rate for skilled, professional work
A focused, short-term commitment — 2 to 3 sessions in total
Be part of an exclusive, accent-specific project where your voice genuinely cannot be replicated by anyone else
