About Anderson Anderson & Brown LLP

Chartered accountants and business advisors, Anderson Anderson and Brown LLP deliver a personalised service, geared to client needs. The company supports their clients’ ambitions by delivering four ‘Plus Factor’ goals: making money, saving time, giving them peace of mind, and supporting clients now and in the future.

Founded in 1990 and based in Aberdeen, their vision for the future is to pioneer integrated advisory solutions in partnership with their clients. To keep their focus, all of the meeting rooms in their office are named after pioneering figures, for example, Faraday, Fiennes, Shackleton and Smith.

Since starting an initiative last year to reduce the volume of paper being filed and retained, they have reduced the number of electronic documents being printed and then filed by 27%. Paperless Pioneers are appointed in each department to continue to monitor processes and share best practice.
