Charlie Thomson
Partner
Educated at Gordon Schools, Huntly, before joining TSB as bank clerk in 1978. I switched to the role of financial adviser with them from 1989 until 1992. Then financial advisory/management roles with AEGON and GAN between 1992 and 1998. Founding partner of Albyn Associates, starting 6/4/98 with Iain Baird and still here! My social side sees me on the golf course, much to the despair of my other half!
Colin MacLennan
Partner
I worked for Abbey Life before joining Charlie and Iain at Albyn Associates in 2000. We became independent financial advisers in 2002 and I became a partner in 2003. Being a financial adviser brings many pleasures in helping our valued clients in all manner of circumstances. I am happily married to Bev with two wonderful children and I enjoy a social game of golf and listening to my eclectic taste in music.

I left school in 1983 and joined my local bank as a junior and by the time I left in 2000 I was a senior business banking manger. I joined Albyn in 2000 and have over 1000 mortgage customers which keep me on my toes. Outside Albyn I am happily married to Pam and have three young girls which keeps me busy - but not too busy to ever miss a game at Pittodrie.
