Company Description
IQ Referrals is a referral-first executive recruiting firm dedicated to the Biologics, Pharmaceutical, and Medical Device sectors, built on four pillars: integrity, quality over quantity, referrals, and deep expertise. Led by founder and president Ira Mann, a recruiter since 1999, the firm focuses on long-term relationships with highly regarded, often passive professionals and prioritizes trusted recommendations over job-board noise to achieve superior, lasting matches. IQ Referrals partners with early-stage, clinical, and established life sciences companies—as well as investors supporting them—providing a single, experienced point of contact who understands the competitive dynamics of hiring and the importance of cultural fit, growth potential, and return on investment. The firm offers customized search models, including Standard and Priority Engagement Contingency, Retained and Discounted Retained, and Volume and Priority Volume search, and augments client success with executive coaching and training in recruiting strategy and methods. Screening is rigorous and relationship-driven, often developed over years, and covers technical depth, compensation parameters, motivators, strengths and experiences, lifecycle exposure, leadership scope, and relocation considerations when relevant. IQ Referrals specializes in GxP (GMP, GCP, GVP) and executive leadership across Technical Operations, Engineering, Operations, Process Development, and Scientific leadership, spanning the product lifecycle from R&D and Clinical through CMC, Commercialization, and Post Market. Therapeutic and technology coverage includes ADCs, cell and gene therapy, immunology and immuno-oncology, vaccines, rare diseases, biosimilars, IVDs, large and small molecules, combination products, MedTech, and more. Candidates can expect advocacy, confidentiality, and thoughtful guidance—never a submission without prior discussion—while employers benefit from access to a curated network of referred, high-caliber professionals. Operating coast-to-coast in the United States with strong activity in CA, FL, MD, MA, NJ, NY, NC, PA, and WA, IQ Referrals consistently delivers quality hires that start with referrals and result in measurable business impact.
