In 1991 upon leaving school at the age of 16 Sean began a national diploma in business studies at the local college.

After two years he gained the diploma and went on to university to do a degree in business studies for the next four years specialising in accountancy & finance. During this time he spent a year working in finance and living in Edinburgh.

Then in 1997 armed with a degree he started as a trainee accountant at a respected local firm where he spent the next three years.

After moving to another local firm in 2000 to take up a more senior position he qualified as a Chartered Certified Accountant in 2002.

Upon passing his exams he then moved on again to a more senior position at the same firm Chris was working at. After two years and realising that his prospects for advancement were limited Sean thought about setting up his own practice, knowing that there was a gap in the market for a firm dedicated to customer service.

In 2004 Sean Hannah+Co was born and the rest as they say is history. Sean is married and in his spare time loves driving his classic VW camper van. He loves music and regularly takes part in busker sessions around the North East and Scotland.
