Job Titles:

I started a small bookkeeping business in 1987 on a part time basis, using contacts I had made whilst working in the oil industry. The business has grown significantly over the years, with increased staff levels, additional services available, and a wider range of clients. In 1999 we bought our current office premises in Banchory and changed the name of the business from Banchory Bookkeeping Services to BBKS & Co Accountants. Qualified Accountants were brought in and a Tax Department was established. In 2002 we were the winner of the Sir Alick Buchanan Smith - Spirit of Enterprise Award sponsored by The Royal Bank of Scotland. I am extremely proud to be part of a team that bring a high level of knowledge and experience along with approachability and friendliness to all our clients. "I first met Louise Birse at BBKS around 6 years ago and after a brief discussion about the issues we were facing employing a full time book-keeper with all the problems that arise around continuity, expertise, reliability , she offered a solution which took care of all our concerns, was affordable and tailor made to our needs.
