Why work for us?
Our innovative charities and businesses work together to create social profit, rather than financial profit – this means we can do more to support the people who really need us, those in our communities.
We do this by keeping our customers and employees at the heart of everything we do and making this the driving force behind our wide range of high-quality services across the North West.
Each part of The Calico Group has its own specialism, expertise and a track record of providing a complete community service in housing, healthcare, support, employability and construction: Follow the link to find out more!

We are proud members of Hive, where we ask our colleagues to give us anonymous feedback. These surveys give our team a voice on a wide range of topics—whether it’s about their personal experience, their colleagues, or the organisation. We believe that every employee has valuable insights on how we can improve. By listening to their feedback, we aim to empower our people and make positive changes across the organisation.
