Karen Le Cannu - Consultant

karen.lecannu@powerscourt-group.com

I work on Powerscourt's Financial Services team for a range of listed and private companies, and government agencies.  In addition to financial calendar communications I also provide profile raising, media relations and crisis management advice and support.  I have worked on several interesting projects since joining Powerscourt; one of the most significant of these was Bank of Ireland's €3.4bn capital raising in Q2 2010.   

I joined Powerscourt after nearly six years as an analyst at the Bank of England, where I spent the last two years working on the policy and operational framework of the UK's foreign reserves.  Powerscourt has enabled me to use my experience of banking and finance to help my clients and build strong relationships with the media - the high level of client and journalist contact is something I really enjoy.  Everyone on the team contributes different experiences and skills and the collaborative and creative environment at Powerscourt means that together we are far stronger than the sum of our parts.
