Their tailored services are delivered by a multidisciplinary team that combines legal, HR, and operational expertise.

The consultancy’s extensive portfolio includes regulatory training, inspection preparation, and strategic HR support - all designed to empower businesses with clarity, confidence, and control.
This Business All-Star accreditation affirms Canavan Byrne’s status as a trusted partner for compliance and HR solutions, and as a key contributor to standards in Ireland’s evolving care and education landscape.
