Aberdeen is Scotland’s fastest-growing and third-largest business centre, housing a significant number of multinational energy corporations with which Paul Gee & Co has strong relationships.

We are now a leading player in Scotland capable of delivering high-quality expertise and advice wherever our clients’ business interests may be.'
