Voice Over Artist - UK English (Wales)

Voice Over Artist — Welsh English (AI Speech Recording)

About the Role

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

This is a rare, well-compensated contract opportunity for voice talent based in Wales. Sessions are limited — and your contribution will have a lasting impact on how AI systems understand natural human speech.

• 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

Note: This project is AI-related but does not involve voice cloning.

What You'll Do

• Record natural, conversational Welsh-accented 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 to vary tone, pacing, and delivery across sessions
• Bring your genuine Welsh accent to recordings that help AI better understand real regional speech
