A soucer is usually someone who is dedicated to producing names and list generation for a particular job opening or search assignment. A sourcer may very well work directly for a recruiter. A recruiter on the other hand will usually have full life cycle responsibility. This of course can include sourcing as well as candidate development, salary negotiation and managing client expectations.
