Culture and valuesWe are guided by our shared values. It's not about finding people who think and act in the same way. These values help to guide our work and will continue to strengthen it.
ThoughtfulThoughtful at Iso is about curiosity, creativity and care. It is about good people doing good, rigorous and future-making science every single day.
BraveBrave at Iso is about fearlessness, but it's also about initiative and integrity. The scale of the challenge demands nothing less.
DeterminedDetermined at Iso is the way we pursue our goal. It's a confidence in our hypothesis, as well as the urgency and agility needed to deliver on it. Because disease won't wait, so neither should we.
TogetherTogether at Iso is about connection, collaboration across fields and catalytic relationships. It's knowing that transformation is a group project, and remembering that what we're doing will have a real impact on real people everywhere.
Creating an extraordinary companyWe believe that to be successful we need a team with a range of skills and talents. We're building an environment where collaboration is fundamental, learning is shared and every employee feels supported and able to thrive. We value unique experiences, knowledge, backgrounds, and perspectives, and harness these qualities to create extraordinary impact.
Hybrid workingIt's hugely important for us to share knowledge and build strong relationships with each other, and we find it easier to do this if we spend time together in person. This is why we follow a hybrid model, and
would require you to be able to come into the office 3 days a week (currently Tuesday, Wednesday, and one other day depending on which team you're in). If you have additional needs that would prevent you from following this hybrid approach, we'd be happy to talk through these if you're selected for an initial screening call.
