dynamic and expanding group of Partners and Associate Partners with a core of senior members with a wealth of
experience in the industry. We are committed to retaining our values of ethical personal service.

Stephen Hogg

Associate Partner

Associate Partner Stephen Hogg opened up our Midlands office, based around Bedford, in early 2016. His 30 years of business experience has been across a broad spectrum of different industry sectors in numerous senior roles. This overall knowledge allows him to bring a thorough approach to his clients and has enabled him to help many business owners through the tricky path to completing the sale of their business. The Midlands office covers Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Cambridgeshire, Hertfordshire and Northamptonshire.

“When I decided to sell my business, I chose Vandervells and I’m extremely glad I did. Steve Hogg went out of his way from the very beginning to ensure the business was valued and marketed professionally & correctly and to also make sure that I understood the process that I was about to embark on.”
