Nurole is challenging the old headhunting processes that involve secretive searches that throw up safe and predictable names. They have built the Nurole network which blends headhunting, a social network and AI to identify obvious candidates and make more imaginative matches, connecting diverse talented leaders with board-level roles that require their skills, experience and passions, often from unexpected places. This system bypasses the cognitive bias of the intermediary in the initial outreach to prospective candidates and levels the playing field, ensuring equal opportunity and thereby naturally improving the diversity of all candidates.
Nurole has 60,000+ members across more than 100 countries, and has placed over 2,500 people into board roles at companies ranging from multinational listed businesses, to VC-backed scale ups, to charities, government bodies, and everything in between.
There are a few platforms working in the automated job matching space such as Hired and Vettery. However they focus on junior and middle management roles. Nurole focuses on filling global board roles, markets which have historically favoured those who knew the right people and that fit the traditional profile, rather than those most deserving.

I work on interesting and exciting projects, each with different requirements and challenges. I've also worked on upgrading old codebases to make use of modern practices.

From iterating on our most-used tools to shaping the next feature, developers are able to make a huge impact when solving business problems in the full-stack space because of the emphasis Nurole places on autonomy and recognising peoples' skills.

Hard work does not go unnoticed at Nurole. We have an excellent leadership team that recognises and celebrates great work and awards prizes each month. We also foster a safe environment to take risks, fail, and analyse what could have gone better.

I've learned more at Nurole in 1 year as a full-stack developer within an autonomous squad than 2+ years at any other company I've worked at. We encourage knowledge-sharing across squads through end-of-sprint demos and retrospectives.

It is always so great to have colleagues you can learn from, trust and know they will be onboard or challenge you when you share ideas and updates on projects! They are always happy to bounce ideas and think about the next great thing we could be working on!

We have such a great team energy, doing socials really helps because we know each other more and more and that truly helps working together more efficiently! We also have some really nice offsites where we work on specific problems to solve for a set period of time and it is such a great way to collaborate in a cross-functional way.

Just over two years in, I'm leading all the work we do for charities - we reduce our fees by up to 90% for them, and help some really interesting and worthwhile organisations, including the RSPCA, the NSPCC and the British Heart Foundation, to find great new people for their boards.

When I arrived in late 2019, the team was almost 30 people and now it's over 50. Being named alongside the likes of Deliveroo and Bulb Energy in the FT's list of the 1,000 fastest-growing companies in Europe is exciting!

Jobs boards are nothing new but Nurole is taking the idea a step further, both in terms of intelligently matching roles to people and working on board-level opportunities. I often chat to our product team and software engineers on new ideas for making the platform even better, as well as leading innovations in my own team.
