Jim Canavan Email and Phone Number

Having gained extensive experience in a number of sectors for over 40 years I have now decided to concentrate on Non Executive roles, Business Mentoring and also supporting philanthropic initiatives. I am a results-driven senior executive with strong financial, analytical and legal skills displaying an exceptional understanding of the laws of corporate governance, contract and limited companies. As CEO of UniPhar plc I presided over the growth and development of the second largest pharmaceutical, medical and life sciences wholesale distribution business on the island of Ireland. Completed a one year contract with the SISK Group in 2010, leading the financial and operational integration process of its healthcare companies in Ireland. Commenced a consultancy contract with Dublin City University Department of Finance in September 2010, working on special projects and taking on responsibility for Procurement and Risk Management. December 2012 appointed to the position of Campaign Director for DCU Educational Trust with responsibility for delivering an ambitious and exciting campaign, in line with the DCU Strategic Plan. Following the successful Launch of the Campaign joined the PC Group of companies as Group Managing Director. The PC Group improves organisations competencies and efficiencies by providing best in class HR consultancy, Nurse Recruitment, Healthcare Training, IT cloud solutions and Digital Marketing Solutions services. Having completed a major restructuring of the PC Group I have now moved into a non-executive role with a number of organisations together with some valuable volunteer work which includes being a trustee with the DCU Educational Trust.
