Since head coach Eddie Howe took charge at Newcastle last November, Bartlett has progressed from Under-23s goalkeeping coach to the head of the goalkeeping department at the club.
The 36-year-old was released by Newcastle as a youngster in 2005 and went on to forge a successful career in lower league football before moving to coaching.

The head of goalkeeping position had been vacant at Newcastle since long-serving coach Simon Smith left over the summer.
