“Managers at ICON thrive on their direct reports growing and getting promoted. This is one of the reasons why I changed course and sought after a manager position. For each internal position I applied for my managers supported me by allowing me to attend role specific trainings, shadow colleagues, and even conducting mock interviews to make sure I had all the tools to be successful. At ICON I have the luxury of being exposed to different roles which allows me to expand my knowledge and understand of managing clinical studies. This too has supported me in my growth at ICON. I take pleasure in saying I work for ICON."

“I joined ICON IGP 6 years ago where I started as a Clinical Data Manager, moved into line management, and most recently into the role of Director, Clinical Data Management. ICON IGPS leadership has encouraged me to grow and develop my career and has provided mentorship and training. ICON IGP leadership is transparent, approachable, and trustworthy and they genuinely seek and listen to input, are supportive and encouraging, all lending to a positive work environment. Working within the ICON IGP organization offers the best of both worlds, it has the feel of a small organization but the benefit of the larger organization. The work we do with governmental agencies, multinational public health organizations and global NGOs is not only challenging, but very rewarding."
