Cartwright

Cartwright was established in 1986 to fill a gap in the market by providing specialist actuarial and pension services to small and medium sized defined benefit schemes. Founded by Ian Cartwright, who, as Chairman, continues to be fully involved in the business, the company has always adopted a ‘pioneer’ approach; that same spirit remains today with the company continually seeking to find new and innovative ways to improve systems and methodologies. Originally located in Godalming, Surrey, the growth of the company has generally been achieved through organic expansion. Today, Cartwright has a strong, highly experienced and expert team of 90 staff members and the company is owned by the employees. Four core teams - actuarial, pensions administration, pensions management and investment consulting - all work together seamlessly to provide truly bespoke solutions for each customer. Overview: Cartwright Group is an independent privately-owned pension actuarial, consultancy and administration firm. Established in 1986, we provide actuarial advice, employee benefits consultancy and administration services to trustees and sponsors seeking to manage their pension plans effectively and efficiently. As our core and only business, we have grown by putting clients at the heart of everything we do. We are dedicated to delivering pragmatic solutions, we operate with the highest degree of professionalism and integrity and we are hands-on. With offices in Godalming, Chelmsford and Farnborough serving over 200 clients, we specialise in medium-size schemes wanting access to expert services and solutions, delivered at a competitive price and with a personal touch. Approx. Number of Employees: 100 Founded: 1986 Our business takes its name from Ian Cartwright, our founder and chairman. Ian originally set up the business back in 1986 to fill a need. Thanks to his ambition we’ve successfully continued to give specialist and bespoke actuarial and financial services to small and medium sized DB pension trusts. An often badly-catered-for market, we work together seamlessly to provide truly bespoke solutions to schemes with less than 1000 members or £5-500m in assets under management. Ian continues to be fully involved in our business, and his ‘pioneering’ approach remains today as we continue to seek new and innovative ways to improve client outcomes, systems and methodologies. We’re proud to have grown mostly through organic expansion. And over 38 years on, we now operate nationwide from two offices located in Farnborough and Chelmsford. Today, Cartwright Pension Trusts has a strong, highly experienced and expert team of 100 people. Though we started in the pensions market we saw how our unique skill-set could benefit other sectors too and have branched into other sectors, to offer the same unique expertise.
