The Managers' and Overlookers' Society was a trade union in England, principally representing managers in the textile industry in Yorkshire. The union's origins lay in three friendly societies in Bradford. The oldest, the Bradford No.1 Overlookers' Provident Society, was founded in 1827, while the Bradford No.2 Managers' and Overlookers' Society was formed in 1833, and the Bradford Overlookers' Provident Society No.3 in 1862. Nos.1 and 3 merged in 1906, and No.2 joined in 1911, becoming the Bradford and District Managers' and Overlookers' Society. In 1912, this merged with similar societies from Halifax, Keighley and Wakefield, forming the Yorkshire Managers' and Overlookers' Society; it dropped "Yorkshire" from its name in 1921.
