Bumper: Sheffield tech firm listed in FT1000 for sixth year running
Sheffield-based tech firm Bumper has been named in the FT1000: Europe’s Fastest-Growing Companies 2026, for the sixth year in a row.
Bumper, which provides a suite of payment options for car repairs, ranks at number 36 in the Fintech, Financial Services & Insurance category of the Financial Times’ prestigious list of Europe’s fastest-growing companies – and number 328 overall.
The inclusion follows a year of growth for Bumper, which recently doubled the footprint of its Sheffield headquarters to accommodate rapid expansion in the business. Bumper expects to invest over £30m in salaries in Sheffield over the next five years.
James Jackson, CEO and Co-Founder at Bumper, said: “It’s an honour to be listed in the FT1000 for the sixth year in a row. The ranking follows another remarkable year of growth for Bumper – we surpassed £1.5bn in GMV, raised a further £8m in funding and launched our payments orchestration platform Bumper Pro.
“This ranking puts us one step closer towards our goal of becoming Yorkshire’s first fintech unicorn.”
