The impressive number highlights the firm’s significant investment in its talent, with promotions to the senior management team accounting for nine of the moves: Matthew Allan (Audit), Hilary Dyson (Cloud Accounting), Nicola Rollings (Restructuring & Recovery), Vikki Venerus (Wealth Management), Stephen Lawie (Software & Systems), Lisa Smith (Business Advisory), Katy Thomson (Corporate Tax), Fiona Sewell (Audit) and Richard Petrie (Corporate Benefits).

As well as acknowledging the skills and contributions of these individuals, the promotions strengthen AAB’s plans to reach its ambitious growth targets through new opportunities in traditional and specialist services, expanding its client base both in the UK and across the globe from offices in Aberdeen, Edinburgh and London.

Graeme Allan, managing partner, said: “As AAB continues to grow, we strive to work in complete partnership with our clients. These promotions demonstrate that we have specialist skills to provide unrivalled awesome service. It also shows our dedication to career progression across the firm which is one of the key reasons we attract and retain top talent.

“The promotions are extremely well deserved and recognise the skill and expertise of each individual. I am confident they will all play an important role in our efforts to further enhance our service delivery while meeting clients’ demands and needs.”
