In this episode of Edinburgh Business Stories, we’re joined by Rob Aberdein, Group Managing Director at Simpson & Marwick - a lawyer, entrepreneur and lifelong hustler.
Rob shares how his early ventures, from selling cookies at family barbecues to trading posters and pizzas as a teenager, shaped his business instincts long before he stepped into law. He talks about the bold decision to walk away from a “safe” career in accountancy, the lessons he’s learned leading change in one of Scotland’s oldest professions, and why he believes the legal world must evolve or risk being left behind.
If you’ve ever questioned convention, led through change, or built something by trusting your gut, this is one to watch.
