Innovative recruitment practices

QOP Pharma recruits across pharma and pharmaceutical services, where execution is shaped by payer and PBM pressure, regulatory scrutiny, quality systems, and supply chain realities. We learn how work actually flows across manufacturing, quality, market access, distribution, and pharmacy services, then target leaders who have already delivered in comparable, highly regulated environments. The goal is simple: shortlists built on real operating context, not recycled generalist resumes.

QUALITY OPERATIONS, QUALITY TALENT, REAL IMPACT,

High-touch approach that drives results

For QOP Pharma, high touch means staying close to how your business really runs: portfolio priorities, pipeline and launch timelines, access and reimbursement friction, manufacturing and quality constraints, and downstream distribution or pharmacy pressures. We keep communication direct, represent the role and environment exactly as they are, and run tight feedback loops so candidates stay aligned to pace, accountability, and expectations. That leads to tighter shortlists, fewer wasted interviews, and stronger long term fit.

Our Process

Proven results through a proactive outbound strategy.

Frequently asked questions

How do we run searches for companies in pharmacy and pharmaceutical services?

QOP Pharma uses a fully outbound recruitment process. We do not post jobs or rely on inbound applicants. We define the requirements, map the talent across pharma and pharmacy services, and reach out directly to professionals who match those requirements. This keeps the search focused on proven performers instead of active job seekers.

How do we decide which candidates to target and present?

We convert your brief into clear must have criteria for experience, responsibilities, and results. We then identify professionals who meet those criteria and speak with them to confirm depth, alignment, and readiness. Only candidates who fit the role and environment are presented.

How fast do we deliver candidates?

On average, we provide a usable shortlist within 2.5 weeks. The outbound model removes delays caused by job postings and allows us to target relevant profiles immediately, which reduces interview waste and shortens the hiring cycle.

How does our pricing and guarantee work?

We operate on a full contingency basis. All research and outreach are funded upfront. You are invoiced 30 days after the hire starts. If the hire does not stay for at least 180 days, we restart the search under the same agreement. This keeps most of the risk on our side until the hire is stable.

Do we also handle executive and leadership roles in pharmacy and pharmaceutical services?

Yes. Over the past eight years, QOP Pharma has built a strong network of operators, senior managers, and leadership professionals across pharma and pharmacy services. When an executive search comes in, we use that network to identify leaders with relevant experience, proven judgment, and stable track records, so we can support both day-to-day hiring and higher-level leadership needs in the same industry.

How do we handle confidentiality during the search?

We keep both sides protected. Candidate conversations stay private, and client details are only shared once a candidate meets the core requirements and expresses genuine interest. This avoids unnecessary exposure for both the company and the candidate.

How do we communicate with candidates throughout the process?

We contact candidates directly, set expectations early, and relay only accurate information about the role. Candidates understand the workload, environment, and reporting structure before speaking with you. This reduces mismatched expectations and improves close rates.
