Leeds UK, West Yorkshire, United Kingdom Bartlett Group Full time

The Company


Established in 1940, Bartlett is one of the UK’s leading independent insurance brokers and financial advisers.


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 the Bartlett family. We act for businesses, charities and individuals across the UK – from manufacturing firms to large financial institutions. Our clients include firms and 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.


We are currently recruiting for our growing teams who are based in our head office in Horsforth.
