The Role
We are a market-leading nature data company. Our mission is to make nature measurable and actionable at scale and accelerate finance into nature. Our platform delivers vital insights on species, habitats, and nature-related risks, helping businesses across sectors - from mining and renewables to consumer goods and financial services - make smarter, more sustainable decisions.
As global leaders in biodiversity monitoring and eDNA analysis, we are transforming how nature is measured. Recognised as Earthshot Prize Finalists 2024, BloombergNEF Pioneers 2024, World Economic Forum Technology Pioneers 2024, and part of the TechNation Future Fifty 2025, we are shaping the future of how organisations understand and protect nature.
As we enter a new phase of global growth, we are seeking a Product Delivery Scientist to support the smooth and efficient operation of our laboratory, ensuring high-quality sample processing and accurate data generation for our commercial clients.
What you'll do
- Conduct laboratory analysis of client samples using established protocols, including DNA extraction from environmental samples (e.g., soil, water, bulk tissues), QC testing, and PCR/qPCR.
- Maintain laboratory operations by supporting sample check-in, cleaning laboratory areas, and performing other lab-based duties as required.
- Ensure data accuracy by maintaining complete and accurate records on internal sample tracking systems.
- Adhere to laboratory protocols and ensure compliance with company policies, health and safety standards (e.g., COSHH, risk assessments, ISO and occupational health and safety legal requirements).
- Collaborate with the wider Science Team to optimise laboratory workflows and ensure timely delivery of high-quality results.
About you
We are looking for a proactive and detail-oriented individual with a passion for laboratory work and molecular biology.
