Recognised for our enduring focus on clients and employees, in the last 3 years alone we have been named as UK Broker of the Year, Commercial Lines Broker of the Year, the UK’s #1 Financial Adviser in the Financial Times Top 100 and Best Employer at the Yorkshire Financial Awards.

Today, the business is proudly managed by the third generation of Bartletts, acting for businesses, charities and individuals across the UK – from regional manufacturing firms to large financial institutions. Our private clients include families we have worked with for generations.

With an eye to the next decade (as opposed to the next quarter), we’re perfectly placed to continue to create meaningful and enjoyable careers for our colleagues across the UK, whatever their role.

And when you join Bartlett, you also help support vulnerable young people across the UK and abroad. We do this by giving 8% of our profits to support grassroots organisations. In the last four years alone, we’ve raised over a million pounds to support some incredible causes.
