Gillian McCallum

Spear’s Review

Gillian McCallum is the CEO of Drawing Down the Moon, a matchmaking agency that says it has been responsible ‘for tens of thousands of successful relationships, marriages and children since 1984’.

Formerly a headhunter for UHNW-owned businesses across the UK, Europe and the Middle East, McCallum sees similarities between her former career and her current role: a winning personality fit, compatible world views and shared values are crucial for both singletons seeking a partner and discerning corporate clients searching for the right candidate. 

McCallum has also built up an extensive global network of UHNWs and their associates, who are now at her fingertips when it comes to connecting couples. 

A multifaceted adviser, McCallum also runs The coParenting Agency, which matches would-be parents with a ‘platonic co-parent’.
