Mortgage and protection advice firm Vickers Young has joined network Stonebridge.
Founded in 2012 by managing director Corby Macdonald, the Leicestershire firm expanded from a sole adviser operation into a 12-strong team and now plans to recruit up to 12 advisers each year.
Corby Macdonald, managing director of Vickers Young, said: “Networks aren’t always aligned with what firms like ours want to achieve long term. When we began looking for a new partner, it was essential to find a network that genuinely understood our growth plans and would work alongside us to deliver them.
“With Stonebridge, we found that alignment straight away. They share our ambition and are already supporting us with plans to scale the business, recruit more advisers, and ensure we continue to deliver the best outcomes for our customers.”
Rob Clifford, chief executive of Stonebridge, (pictured) added: “Firms like Vickers Young are very clear about where they want to take their business, and they want a partner which will help them get there safely and successfully without any loss of independence. Our role is to provide the support, insight, and infrastructure that allow ambitious firms to grow on their own terms.
“We’re delighted to welcome Corby and the team to Stonebridge and look forward to working with them on their plans in the years ahead.”
