Hiring and progression: designing inclusion into the process
Brevo aims to reduce bias from the earliest stages of recruitment by using inclusive, gender-neutral language across job postings. To support fair decision-making throughout the employee lifecycle, Brevo also provides bias awareness training for managers, covering key moments such as hiring, performance reviews, promotions and team-building.
Retention and support: enabling careers through parenthood
Brevo seeks to ensure that major life transitions do not put careers on hold. Across its offices, the company goes beyond local legal requirements on parental leave, for example by extending fully paid maternity leave in the USA, alongside additional paid leave for second parents. Brevo also provides support services related to childcare to ensure that both parents feel equally supported.
Measuring progress and strengthening accountability
Brevo tracks representation and progression across the organisation and publishes its Gender Equality Index annually, supporting transparency on pay equity and representation. Brevo’s DEI commitments are also embedded within its broader B Corp framework, reinforcing that social performance is core to how the business operates.
External commitments and employee-led engagement
Brevo complements internal policies with external commitments and partnerships. In March 2026, Brevo became a signatory of the UN Women’s Empowerment Principles (WEPs) and plans to complete the WEPs Gender Gap Analysis self-assessment to inform an action plan. Brevo has also partnered with Girls Who Code, hosting awareness sessions around International Women’s Day 2026 and supporting employee-driven fundraising. In addition, Brevo’s Noida office has been recognised as a Great Place to Work for Women, reflecting its focus on inclusive workplaces beyond its European headquarters.
Together, these measures combine practical action across hiring, progression and retention with measurement and external accountability to support sustained progress over time.
