Paul Cadman

Professor Paul Cadman of Entrepreneurship is based at Birmingham City University Business School and is a regional business leader and charity ambassador.

Paul is a national and international award-winning Chief Executive Officer with a demonstrated history of success working in Tec, Manufacturing, Retail, Consultancy, Media and Membership organisations. He has taken businesses from conception to £100m plus turnover based largely on organic growth, experience, strategy and contacts.

His mindset, both in business and in helping individuals, is to improve and increase opportunities, to enhance prospects and bring the very best out of people and into their lives – permanently.

He owns and operates numerous companies across a broad range of sectors, both wholly and jointly with others. Supports several organisations in various capacities, including as a patron, non-executive director and in select ambassadorial roles.

Known as ‘the quiet changemaker’, Paul’s passion and drive are fuelled by a desire to help others and to give back to causes he cares deeply about.

He is a collaborative and persuasive communicator, with the ability to cultivate sustainable and robust stakeholder relationships. He builds reliable, commercially astute teams to tackle existing problems and react quickly as new challenges present themselves.

He bases all of his professional efforts around three fundamental cornerstones: professionalism, integrity and loyalty.
