When we say it’s your IMS, that’s what we mean. Our goal is to support ICAEW members who live and work in Scotland. We offer a range of events where you can connect with other members, as well as providing help when things are challenging.
We represent you and champion your needs and concerns acting as your mouthpiece with the Institute in London along with our Council member, Carl Bayley.
Our group comes from all business areas from private practice to public sector. Some wear suits and do the 9-5 thing, some work in less traditional environments. But they all have one thing in common; they are committed to doing everything that they can for our members.
This ranges from making their voice heard at national level to organising social and networking events where members can meet and exchange ideas over a beer!
We’re always looking for new people, new ideas and new thoughts, so if you want to help shape IMS and the work we do, come along and find out how you can get involved.
Contact Fiona Ormiston our local executive and drop into one of our Wednesday evening meetings in Edinburgh.
The ICAEW Business Confidence Monitor (BCM) is a quarterly report and analysis prepared for business and finance professionals in Scotland.
Based on research with ICAEW members in businesses across the UK with analysis from Oxford Economics, ICAEW’s partner and an acknowledged expert in research analysis, the reports give a quarterly snapshot of the state of the economy across sectors and provides a useful and accurate predictor of economic change.
ICAEW members in Scotland have access to meeting rooms and facilities at the prestigious Royal Scots Club in Abercromby Place, Edinburgh.
The Royal Scots Club is located in the heart of Edinburgh’s new town and offers meeting rooms, accommodation, dining and bar facilities and much more.
If you are in Edinburgh and need accommodation, somewhere for lunch, a place to meet a client or customer or just a quiet space for a coffee between meetings – this is an ideal facility for you.
Institute members in Scotland can now enjoy access to these facilities as part of their ICAEW membership.
Members will be asked to sign in and will require their ICAEW membership card for identification and access.
