You brief us.
What the job involves, the team around it, and whether it is office, hybrid or remote. A short call is usually enough.
Talented women,
recommended to your team.

or to the companies.

Why we do this
Helping women get found.
We often see talented women missed for roles they would do well, because nobody put their name forward. Calibre exists to help exceptional women be found by top companies, so there is no charge to the women or to the companies.
Philosophy( women )
01 Every woman we recommend is someone whose work we know, from working with her or seeing her work, often over years.
02 Many good hires come through someone who already knows the person. We want that route open to more women.
You get one or two names, each with a short note on why we think she fits.
How it works
How we find the right person.
02
We shortlist.
We go through the women we know across the UK and Europe. If nobody fits, we say so.
03
We introduce them.
Once she is happy to talk, you get her details and a note on why she could fit. You choose on merit, and there is no fee at any stage.
In short
There is
no charge.

For companies( what you get )
01
A short, checked list
Each woman we send has already heard about the role and wants to talk to you. You assess her as you would any candidate, and the choice is yours.
02
Office, hybrid or remote
We ask how your team works day to day and only put forward women who do well working that way.
03
Kept confidential
If a search is sensitive, or the woman we are introducing is still in a job, it stays between you, her and us.
For women( no charge )
01
It costs you nothing
We never charge you, at any stage, including if you get the job.
02
Found for your work
We put you forward because of work we have seen, so the company hears about what you have actually done.
03
You say yes first
A company only hears your name after we have talked the role through with you and you are happy to go ahead.
To be considered, email us a few lines about your work, or ask someone who has worked with you to introduce you. We only recommend a woman once we have seen her work for ourselves.
Calibre is free and independent. It is not a business or a recruitment agency, and we never charge the women we recommend or the companies we introduce them to.
Questions
Common questions.
Are you a recruitment agency?
No. Calibre is an independent network, not a business. We recommend women we know to companies that ask us.
Does it cost anything?
No. It is free for the women we recommend and for the companies we introduce them to. We do this to help women be found, not to make money.
Why women?
Because we see talented women missed for roles they could do well, often because nobody put their name forward. We want that to change. The companies we work with still choose who to hire on merit.
How do I get recommended?
Email us a few lines about your work, or ask someone who has worked with you to introduce you. We get to know your work first, and if we see a fit with a role, we talk it through with you before anyone hears your name.
Where do you work?
In the UK and across Europe. We recommend women for office, hybrid and fully remote roles.
How do you decide who to recommend?
We only put forward women whose work we have seen ourselves. If we would not hire her, we do not send her.
We are hiring. How do we start?
Email us about the role and the team. If we know someone suitable and she is happy to talk, we come back with her name and a short note. If we don't, we tell you.
