From their original office in London in 1975 they now span the world, with branches catering to clients in major locations. Each office is led by an exceptional individual in keeping with the belief that quality is defined by the calibre of their team. Quite simply, they believe theirs to be the best there is. Meet them and judge for yourself.
Chief Executive Jonathan Beckett has led Burgess to become the world’s number one super-yacht brokerage house.
