Professional services firm, AAB, is announcing a strategic consolidation of its five brands across the UK and Ireland, a cornerstone of its six-year plan to strengthen and expand its position as a leading provider in the mid-market.
Employing around 1,000 people across 12 office locations, AAB will bring FPM, Sagars and May Figures under its main brand title, AAB. Think People and SeeHearSpeakUp will become AAB People.
AAB delivers Audit, Accounting, Tax, Payroll, HR, Consulting and Advisory Solutions globally from offices across United Kingdom, Ireland and United States, with annual turnover approaching £100million. The rapidly growing business, with its expanding client base, has trebled in size since 2021, ranking in the top 20 of Accountancy Daily’s Top 75 Accountancy Firms last year.
This strategic move is designed to optimise AAB’s robust brand presence, enhance market penetration, and deliver a more integrated experience for clients. AAB's growth plan, which includes enhancing client engagement, expanding its service offerings and investing in technology, has continued backing from August Equity.

"Our brand consolidation marks a pivotal moment in our growth journey," said Emma Lancaster, Chief Executive at AAB. "By combining our diverse services under the widely recognised AAB brand, we are not only simplifying our structure, but also amplifying our ability to deliver integrated, innovative solutions to our clients. This alignment is crucial as we continue to pursue our ambitious growth targets and expand our footprint in the UK and beyond."
"AAB's commitment to our clients remains steadfast, with a focus on delivering unparalleled accountancy, consultancy and advisory services that drive success," added Lancaster. "By uniting our brands, we will operate more efficiently and effectively, enhancing our ability to offer holistic professional services, and ensuring that our clients continue to receive exceptional support as they navigate their own journeys.
“We have a wealth of experience and expertise across all five brands, and we are delighted to welcome these individuals to the AAB brand. I’d like to thank everyone in our team for their continued hard work.”
