    About Our Client


    The trade associations within the British Allied Trades Federation have supported the industries they represent since 1887, with the formation of the Birmingham Jeweller's and Silversmith's Association. From this initiative the Gliders & Finishers were formed, working relationships with the National Association of Goldsmiths and the London Wholesale Jewellers were agreed, so that by the turn of the twentieth century the key players of today's Federation were talking and beginning to work together. With the addition of the Fancy Goods Association and the British Leather and Luggage mid- century, the Federation we now see was emerging.

    Today BATF has grown to represent retailers; metal finishers, jewellers; goldsmiths; leather-goods; travelling and fashion accessories; giftware and tabletop in a rapidly changing environment. They are proud to present themselves as the unified federation of five of the most significant trade associations in the trade and consumer marketplace.

    Their industry representation includes:

  • Over 2,500 members, including craftsmen, manufacturers, wholesale distributors, retailers, and designers.
  • With 50,000+ employees
  • Worth more than £25billion at retail
  • A national organisation, established for 125 years, championing its members, and helping them flourish both in the UK and abroad.Job Description
