About Us

Stuart Robertson & Associates Ltd.

Company Profile

Who we are

Stuart Robertson & Associates was created in 1991 to provide assessment, consulting, and training services.  An initial focus on British Psychological Society psychometric training and product development quickly expanded with the company to involve all aspects of the selection and development of people at work.

SR&A has a reputation for reliable, high-quality delivery, geared to the specific requirements and culture of client organisations.  Our methods and tools have been used across the UK and Europe in the commercial, public, and voluntary sectors.   Major organisations that have used our services include the IOPC, the MOD, LHH, the VOA, the NHS, and a variety of police authorities.  Also amongst our recent clients are Universities, borough councils, housing associations, hoteliers, legal consulting organisations, training organisations, and a wide range of companies in the retail sector.

Our tools support clients in selection, development, coaching, and career transition.  We continue to provide psychometric training, now delivered in flexible blended learning formats, and have trained thousands of delegates successfully for qualifications in testing.   We maintain a wide network of associate consultants who have all worked with us for a number of years and ensure flexibility and resilience for our clients.
