Biography

Jamie holds a first-class honours Bachelor of Business Studies and a Master of Business Studies by research from the University of Limerick. He completed his PhD at the Centre for Business, Organisations and Society, University of Bath. He trained and qualified as a Chartered Accountant in EY, Cork. Jamie’s research focuses on the effects of companies’ non-financial reporting on stakeholders’ perceptions and behaviour. Specifically, he studies the influence of sustainability reporting on individual stakeholders’ perceptions of companies, i.e., legitimacy, reputation and credibility perceptions. His primary research method is the experiment. He draws on attitude change (persuasion) research in psychology in his work. He also has over 15 years of teaching, lecturing and supervision experience at universities in Ireland and the UK.
