The company is London-headquartered with a large operations footprint in Edinburgh and additional European and India locations. Modulr’s leadership page lists Myles Stephenson as Chief Executive Officer and Founder, while Martin Threakall is listed as Chief of Staff, and some third-party profiles describe Martin Threakall as part of the founding group.
Locations and presence
Modulr lists offices in London, Edinburgh, Amsterdam, Mumbai, and Pune. Public role pages also describe an in-office working pattern for many teams notice that this can matter for early-career support.

Modulr looks strongest on onboarding and practical support once you join, with a named induction programme, buddying, and a well-specified benefits package. Early-career access exists, but the entry routes are not packaged as a steady graduate pipeline, and candidate experiences suggest process consistency can be a risk.
Pillar 1: Early-career access

Score

11.8
/ 20
  • The company has early-career-shaped roles in the mix, including associate-level commercial roles and analyst titles in operations and financial crime teams.
  • Modulr’s own careers pages currently show “Open Roles 0”, which makes entry-level access harder to rely on if you only follow the official site.
  • The company uses an “email your CV” pathway when roles are not listed, which helps motivated juniors but is less predictable than recurring 0–3 year postings.

Pillar 2: Hiring fairness and transparency

Score

10.5
/ 20
  • The company has candidate interview write-ups describing multi-stage processes with culture-fit components and fast follow-up in some cases.
  • Modulr also has multiple candidate write-ups describing ghosting or long silences after screening or later rounds, which is a fairness red flag for early-career applicants.
  • The company does not publish a single consistent, role-by-role interview timeline on the careers site, so candidates cannot plan time burden reliably.

Pillar 3: Learning and support

Score

15.0
/ 20
  • The company runs “ModStart”, an immersive induction programme for new starters, designed to build product and payments context plus internal networks.
  • Modulr’s role pages describe buddy allocation and ongoing learning channels beyond onboarding, which is a concrete support signal for juniors.
  • The company also runs internal learning sessions such as “Power Hour” talks and highlights cross-team collaboration, which can create day-to-day learning if managers protect time for it.

Pillar 4: Pay fairness and stability

Score

12.5
/ 20
  • The company publishes a clear benefits package that includes share options, a discretionary bonus scheme, and a flexible benefits pot that employees can spend on things like medical cover and wellbeing.
  • Modulr offers a high holiday allowance (including a birthday day off) plus pension and life assurance, which improves stability for early-career hires.
  • The company does not consistently publish salary ranges on job ads, so pay fairness for junior roles is hard to judge before interviews.

Pillar 5: Early-career outcomes

Score

11.0
/ 20
  • The company has a large volume of employee reviews with mixed signals, including comments praising ModStart and support alongside criticisms about management quality and progression.
  • Modulr’s review aggregates rate career opportunities around the middle of the scale, suggesting outcomes vary significantly by team rather than being uniformly strong.
  • The company’s public employee-profile footprint points to a mid-sized organisation with multiple locations, but Modulr does not publish early-career outcomes like intern conversion, 12–24 month retention, or typical time-to-promotion.
