At Second Nature we provide great care to our users. As colleagues, we are enthusiastic about being used and trusted by the NHS to help people make long-term healthy lifestyle changes.

???? Keep growing

We believe your only barriers are those that you set yourself. We want people who have a thirst for knowledge and self-development. Those who believe that in the future, they can be better.

???? Let data guide you

We are not our customers. It’s important to stay humble and make decisions based on the data and information available to us, not our own biases and preconceptions.

???? Enjoy the ride

Fast-growing companies have a lot of uncertainty and many course corrections. That can be exciting, empowering, but above all, stressful. Recognising this and being comfortable with it is a key part of being successful with us.
