How Ebury cut calibration time by 75%
Key results
- Departmental calibration time cut from 4 hours to 1 hour: a 75% reduction
- Individual performance outcomes connected to enterprise priorities
The challenge
Ebury managers graded their teams in independent, disconnected spreadsheets. With no shared system, managerial grading bias crept in and there was no consistent way to compare results across teams.
The results
Ebury established objective transparency. It connected individual performance outcomes with overarching enterprise priorities, so the review explicitly rewards A-players. Departmental calibration time fell from 4 hours to 1 hour, a 75% reduction.
Calibration dashboards in Revolut People calculate recommended grades from multiple data points and automatically flag anomalies such as manager leniency or grade inflation, which is what turns a long debate into a short review of the exceptions.
