Pros

Opportunities for career progression. Excellent training & coaching. Fun, supportive work environment. I currently work in the Commercial Production team at IQPC and have been fortunate to have a career spanning multiple roles and locations, including London (2006-2008) and Dubai (2008-2013), and back to London (2021-present). IQPC has always stood out to me as a company that genuinely invests in its employees. The training and development opportunities are exceptional, including formal programmes like the ITM and MDP courses, as well as informal coaching. Every employee creates an Individual Development Plan with their Manager, which is tailored to help you achieve your career goals, and the opportunities for progression are plentiful if you're willing to put in the effort. I've personally benefited from these programmes, as well as regular ongoing training and individual coaching, and have had the chance to work abroad and in diverse roles, which has been incredibly rewarding. The benefits package is also a standout feature. The Employee Assistance Programme and Medicash plan are excellent, providing real support when needed. IQPC also fosters an inclusive and collaborative culture with internal groups like Charity & Culture, Women in Business, Diversity & Inclusion, Menopause Awareness, and Neurodiversity Awareness. One of the things I value most is the supportive environment created by colleagues and leadership. The culture here is collaborative, and you’re surrounded by people who are committed to helping each other succeed. Overall, if you’re looking for a place that values personal and professional growth and offers the chance to work in a variety of roles and locations, IQPC is a fantastic choice.

Cons

None for me, but the industry does require high commitment. For me personally, there are no cons. However, it's worth noting that this industry is fast-paced and you'll often be juggling multiple projects at once, which can be challenging and isn’t for everyone. If you enjoy a high-energy environment that demands the best of you, you’ll excel here.

Pros

Title: Great company to work for with an agile and talented team Pros: Working as a Portfolio Manager at IQPC was a great experience. The company is incredibly agile and has a strong ability to adapt to market changes, which is vital in the highly competitive events and conferences industry. This adaptability allows IQPC to stay ahead of trends and continue delivering relevant and high-quality events. The people here are some of the smartest and most capable I’ve had the pleasure of working with — it’s clear that IQPC attracts top talent and fosters a collaborative, supportive environment. One of the standout aspects of the company is how much they invest in their rising talent. There are continuous opportunities for development, and the performance-based pay structure is a great motivator. It not only rewards individual contributions but also drives the company’s success as a whole. This culture of incentivizing high performance was one of the key factors in my own personal and professional growth while there. Overall: IQPC is a solid company with a lot of potential for growth. The leadership is forward-thinking, the people are sharp, and the culture rewards results. While the sales team dynamic might not be perfect, it’s a small downside in an otherwise great work environment. Would recommend to anyone who thrives in a fast-paced, results-oriented setting!

Cons

Cons: Like many fast-paced companies, there is a bit of ego on the sales team. While this is somewhat expected in a high-energy, results-driven environment, it can occasionally cause friction between departments. However, this is something that can be managed with effective communication and collaboration. For junior staff it can be a challenging environment to meet deadlines.

Pros

people were nice enough to work with

Cons

I worked for SSON, our managing director liked to preach that they advocated for their employees, but I was let go, through no fault of my own per their words, after bad training and no real support for the new role I was taking on. Also, there is zero work/life balance despite being able to work from home 2 days a week, my team was exhausted and upper management did not care.
