Simply, our intention is to become a trusted “go to” Search Partner and Career Advisor, respectively by the Clients and Talent we work closely with.
For our clients, we help them find, attract, engage, qualify, and ultimately land the highly sought-after Talent they want and need to hire. And, with Talent, we alert and introduce them to “on point” matches that help them actualize their career interests and aspirations.
We embrace the belief that the trust we seek to build with our Clients and Talent must be earned by consistently generating results in a professional, consultative, transparent, and timely manner.
We view and approach our business as a long-term people relationship building business, and not a short-term transactional business. We believe the ongoing success of our business depends upon our ability to develop, nurture, strengthen and maintain mutually beneficial relationships with the people in our proprietary professional network, i.e., both hiring contacts and candidates.
Miras Search Partners was founded by Cliff Miras in 2022 with the aim to become the trusted “go to” strategic search partner and career advisor, respectively, by the clients and candidates (Talent) the firm works very closely with.
For the past 20+ years before founding Miras Search Partners, Cliff was a Co-founder and Managing Partner of Cornerstone Search Group (CSG) from 2000 to 2021. CSG is a specialty life sciences search firm that he helped to build from “ground zero” up to become recognized by Hunt Scanlon as a Top 50 Life Sciences Search Firm, and by Forbes as one of Best Recruiting Firms in the USA.
In addition to co-building, leading, and managing CSG, Cliff co-developed, established and led a successful M.D. Specialty Practice Area that helped Pharma & Biotech Companies fill crucial roles for clients requiring/desiring a M.D. for CxO, E/S/VP and E/S/Director level roles. These roles included Executive/Scientific/Medical Leadership, Therapeutic Area Heads, Global Program/Clinical Leaders for Early-stage and/or Later-stage Clinical Development Programs, Clinical Research/Development Medical Directors, and HQ Medical Affairs Strategy Leaders and Therapeutic Area SMEs (pre-launch/launch and/or postlaunch/LCM).
On top of his M.D. Specialty Practice experience, Cliff also has extensive hands-on experience planning, leading/managing, executing and completing Retained Search and Recruiting assignments from A to Z (from intake through strategy and research, outreach, interviewing, offer, acceptance, resignation and onboarding) for a broad range of different positions in multiple functional areas that include Discovery, Clinical Research & Development, Program Management, Project Management, Medical Affairs, Drug Safety, Pharmacovigilance and Risk Management, and Regulatory Affairs among other functions.
Our firm constantly strives to improve, strengthen, and expand its retained search and recruitment capabilities for the benefit of all (i.e., our clients, candidates, and our firm too). We are a member of two selective Search Industry Strategic Alliances, which includes the Tinzon Group and the International Retained Search Association (IRSA). The members of these Alliances are highly successful and independently owned and operated Executive Search Firms based domestically in the USA, and internationally in Europe, Asia, and Australia.
All the search firm members of both Tinzon and IRSA share the same mindset, which is listen, learn, share best practices, new/improved searching, sourcing and assessment tools… to help each other continually improve.
The Tinzon Group is an ever-expanding international alliance of independently owned and operated Executive Search firms primarily based outside of the USA. This select group of firms provides its members with the ability to provide their clients with global reach, and industry expertise through synergistic shared knowledge, collaborations, and resources.
Firm Member Locations include the USA (NJ, Boston, Chicago, Detroit, Cedar Rapids), Europe (London, Copenhagen, Stockholm, Zurich, Prague, Munich), ASIA (Singapore), and Australia (Perth).
Industries include Life Sciences, Technology, Energy, Environmental, Financial Services, Industrial, and Not-for-profit.
