About the company
NatureMetrics is a nature intelligence technology company that turns biodiversity signals into decision-ready reporting for businesses and environmental managers. The company’s core offering uses environmental DNA alongside analytics to measure biodiversity and support nature-risk and impact reporting. NatureMetrics was founded in 2014 and describes global coverage across many countries and sectors, from conservation to heavy industry. Public company materials also position NatureMetrics as a growth-stage business with a sizeable client base and a platform-led product direction.
Locations and presence
NatureMetrics lists a headquarters presence in Guildford (Surrey Research Park) and also shows a North American site in Ontario, Canada. Role locations also include London-area hybrid expectations for some functions, suggesting a UK hub with international operations.

NatureMetrics offers genuine early-career entry points through graduate science and finance roles, plus at least one entry-level commercial role, but evidence of a consistent junior intake across teams is uneven. Candidate interview feedback includes serious complaints about delays and respect, which drags down fairness, while pay transparency and benefits look stronger where graduate roles publish ranges.
Pillar 1: Early-career access

Score

12.7
/ 20
  • The company has advertised true graduate-entry roles such as Trainee Accountant and Research Scientist (graduate role) with clear degree-level targeting and scope.
  • NatureMetrics has also posted at least one role labelled entry level (for example Marketing Executive), widening access beyond lab pathways.
  • The company’s main careers portal sometimes shows no live openings, which makes early-career access feel episodic rather than reliably recurring.

Pillar 2: Hiring fairness and transparency

Score

7.7
/ 20
  • The company has candidate interview feedback describing long gaps after promised update dates (including multi-week silences), which is a red flag for early-career applicants who need certainty.
  • NatureMetrics also has candidate feedback describing many interview steps and an end-to-end experience that felt disrespectful, which suggests inconsistency in process quality.
  • The company uses formal application channels and role write-ups that outline core hours and location expectations, but public detail on stages, timelines, and assessment burden is limited.

Pillar 3: Learning and support

Score

12.3
/ 20
  • The company has an early-career finance role that includes sponsored professional qualifications (ACCA or CIMA), which is a concrete training commitment.
  • NatureMetrics has a graduate science role that explicitly includes mentoring responsibilities (supporting technicians) and structured documentation outputs (SOPs and training documents), which signals a learning culture in technical teams.
  • The company lists benefits that can support healthier onboarding for juniors (flexible core hours, wellbeing space, enhanced family policy), but public evidence of mentoring schemes, buddying, or review cadence is thin.

Pillar 4: Pay fairness and stability

Score

11.7
/ 20
  • The company has published salary ranges on at least one graduate role (for example £25,000–£29,000 for a trainee finance position), helping early-career candidates assess fit before applying.
  • NatureMetrics has also published a specific graduate salary point on a science role (for example £36,000), plus a benefits package that includes pension, life assurance, health insurance, and 25 days holiday in at least one posting.
  • The company does not consistently publish pay bands across roles, so pay fairness for early-career hires outside the graduate-posted roles is hard to verify.

Pillar 5: Early-career outcomes

Score

7.7
/ 20
  • The company has mixed employee sentiment on progression, with review aggregates scoring “career opportunities” relatively low and some public Q&A claiming pay rises and promotion paths are limited, which caps confidence in early-career growth outcomes.
  • NatureMetrics also has individual employee reviews that describe strong colleagues and positive day-to-day experience, suggesting outcomes vary heavily by team and manager.
  • The company’s public professional profile shows a meaningful employee base and growth footprint, but NatureMetrics does not publish early-career outcomes such as intern-to-full-time conversion, 12–24 month retention, or promotion timelines.
