With extensive experience in advising owner-managed businesses at all stages of their lifecycle, Stephen was a stand-out candidate and brings a wealth of expertise in areas such as tax-efficient structuring and incentivising management teams.
“His deep understanding of the unique challenges and opportunities facing these businesses in the current regulatory landscape makes him an excellent addition to our team.”
Henderson Loggie noted that its tax team registered growth in “excess of 150%” over the past four years.
Dodds said: “I was attracted to Henderson Loggie as a firm with both heritage and a modern outlook. Its vision and values are very well aligned with mine.
“I’m thrilled to be joining such a successful tax team and to be part of the plans for growth. I’m especially looking forward to working closely with owner-managed businesses that are so important to the communities we live and work in across Scotland.”
