We met Jim Saunders through a mutual friend a few years ago and have developed a great friendship since. Seeing Jim's passion for building a strong team at MurCal while tirelessly working to advance the entire PowerGen industry as a whole is nothing short of amazing.

The company represents a diverse portfolio of manufacturers, including Murphy by Enovation Controls, FW Murphy Production Controls, Johnson Matthey, Trombetta, Denso, SENS, CRE, Hewitt Industries, Mobile Control Systems, and Intellispark.
In addition to his role at MurCal, Jim serves as Treasurer of the Electrical Generating Systems Association and is a board member with Palmer Johnson Enterprises and NexGen Power, LLC.

Jim has extensive experience managing relationships with key customer segments, including engine manufacturers, OEMs, packagers, and distributors.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
