Louise Birse
Position / Owner
I started a small bookkeeping business (Banchory Book keeping Services) in 1987 myself on a part time basis, using contacts I had made working in the Oil industry in the late 70’s and 80’s and referrals from Accountancy firms in Aberdeen. The business grew significantly to 1999 with increased staff levels, a number of additional services, and wider a range of clients. At this point we bought our current office premises and changed the name of the business from Banchory Book keeping Services to BBKS & Co. We also brought in a qualified Accountants and Tax Team to provide an expanded service to our clients and attract new business. In 2002 we were the winner in the Sir Alick Buchanan Smith – Spirit of Enterprise Award – Grampian Awards for Business Enterprise sponsored by The Royal Bank of Scotland.
The original core business of Bookkeeping has now expanded to the many services we now provide to our clients as you can see from our website. I am now extremely proud to be part of a team that brings high levels of skill, knowledge and friendliness to all our clients and contribute to our ongoing Success.
