IDEA Pharma is delighted to announce the appointment of Mark Forbes Irving as Managing Director.

Working alongside the company's CEO, Mark will be responsible for driving the next phase of the company's growth plan, overseeing and directing the delivery organisation, ensuring customer service, quality and ongoing product innovation continues to remain at the highest standard as the company expands, taking IDEA and its teams to the next level.

With over 20 years' industry experience, Mark joins the company from Quintiles where he was Director of Health Engagement and Communications, and prior to that, in both industry marketing and consultancy sectors where he has had managing director level experience leading multiple firms.

I am delighted to join IDEA at such an exciting time, as it makes the transition into a truly global organisation," said Mark upon his appointment.

Commenting on Mark joining the company, IDEA Pharma's CEO, Mike Rea, said: "We are thrilled to have Mark join us to lead and positively shape the future of our business. With his strong track record in business excellence, we're adding critical skills to our mix, which will be vital as we expand into new markets and help to realise the full significance of our clients' innovations."
