Biography
Audrey Paterson joined the University of Aberdeen Business School in January 2019. Audrey currently holds the positions of Professor of Accountancy and School Director of Postgraduate Research. She is also a visiting Professor at the University of Insurbia, Italy. Prior to this Audrey held the position of Associate Professor at Heriot-Watt University (2002-2019). Audrey also held a research post at the University of Edinburgh (2000-2002).
Audrey has a PhD (completed part time in April 2011), Masters in Social Science Research and a Bachelor’s with Honours in Business all from the University of Edinburgh and a Postgraduate Teaching qualification from Heriot-Watt University.
Audrey is the founder the Accounting, Society, and the Environment (ASE) research network. The ASE network is interdisciplinary and is interested in the interaction between accounting, business activity and their socio-economic and political environments, and encourages critical analysis of policy and practice in these areas. She has served as guest editor for Critical Perspective on Accounting, the British Accounting Review, Financial Accountability & Management and Accounting, Auditing and Accountability journals.
Audrey has published works in high-ranking international journals covering a variety of issues in accounting, management, and education. Her primary research interests lie in the public sector (particularly healthcare) accounting predominantly from a contemporary perspective, although she has secondary interest in accounting history, and gender in the accounting profession and has top ranked publications in each area. Her research takes an interdisciplinary perspective and is mainly concerned with the social impact of accounting, public policy and management control. Her recent work investigates how to build, maintain, and deepen relationships between Scotland and Europe, with the purpose of building a circular economy, in the pursuit of sustainability and net zero targets.
