Our Story.

Since 2008, i-Pharm’s independent, expert, and ethical approach to procuring talent has helped power the pioneering progress made by Pharmaceutical, Biotech and MedTech companies around the world.

We bring the people that allow our clients to unlock problems with the potential to change millions of lives. From executive search to high-volume recruitment, provision of specialist consultants to bespoke project teams, we deliver rapid, high-quality results, every time.  

We have specialised solely in life sciences from the start. By focusing on selected functional markets, we have built a deep understanding of the needs, opportunities, challenges and cultural nuances in each of our areas of specialism.

We serve the world’s leading life sciences companies, from global pharma to growing biotechs, working consistently with many for more than a decade. We also have the privilege of working in a sector where we can support the pioneering progress and genuinely life-changing work of our clients, by helping them, source top talent. 

From our offices in London, Munich, Frankfurt, Sydney, New York, Charlotte and San Diego we have specialist teams servicing the major global life sciences hubs in the UK, Europe, Asia-Pac and North America.

June, 2008

i-Pharm founded in London, UK.

i-Pharm began life in London in 2008 when our two founders, Stephen McAnaney and Colin Lynam spotted a gap in the market and took the plunge to build their own recruitment business focused purely on quality of service in the Life Sciences space.

Munich
April, 2013

i-Pharm opens in Munich, Germany.

In order to continue to offer the highest quality of service to our international client base it became clear that we would need a physical presence in Germany. Therefore, in order to deliver high-quality candidates to more clients we opened our first international office in Munich.  

Sydney
December, 2015

i-Pharm opens in Sydney, Australia.

In 2015 i-Pharm expanded into the Asia-Pac Region with an office in Sydney, Australia to better support our international client base.

New York
July, 2018

i-Pharm opens in New York, USA.

With a large proportion of our clients headquartered in the USA, New York was the next logical step for international expansion.

Charlotte, North Carolina
January, 2021

i-Pharm opens in Charlotte, NC, USA.

As we continue to grow our footprint in the USA opening in Charlotte, North Carolina was the next logical step. As a significant centre for Pharmaceutical and Biotech Manufacturing as well as the global headquarters for the CRO Industry, it gave us the opportunity to be closer to some of our biggest clients.

Frankfurt
June, 2021

i-Pharm opens in Frankfurt, Germany.

Expanding our physical presence in Germany was strategically important for i-Pharm's continued growth, therefore opening our second German office in Frankfurt was the next logical step for the business.

San Diego
November, 2021

i-Pharm opens in San Diego, USA.

Following the success of our East Coast offices in New York and North Carolina, the next logical step was to expand our offering to better support our clients in the Bio-Pharma space on the West Coast.
