Lewis Sutherland’s time with the company has reached the finals of the category celebrating student placements, just a week after audit partner Louise Smith was named winner of the Women in Finance Award of the BWC Aberdeen Athena Awards 2025.

Run by Aberdeen & Grampian Chamber of Commerce, the annual Northern Star Business Awards recognise successful and growing businesses that make a positive impact on the North east economy. Winners will be announced during a dinner at P&J Live in April 2026.

Hall Morrice managing partner Bob Bain said: “We are immensely proud to see our people doing so well, not only in reaching the finals and winning awards but in their everyday achievements.

“Their dedication, professionalism and commitment to service excellence sit at the very heart of what we do, and this external recognition is important in shining a light on the great work they do for our clients, day in and day out.”
