Description

We're Simply Business


We insure small businesses and enable big dreams - not just for our customers, but for our people and communities too.

With over 800,000 active insurance policies, we protect builders, bakers, landlords, and more than 1,000 other trades.


We harness cutting-edge data ability, believe in experimentation, and build our own technology to deliver better experiences for our customers and employees.

This means we're as much a technology company as one that sells insurance. We build, we fail, we learn, we improve.

We're a B Corp too, which recognises our strong track record of having a positive impact on people, society and the environment.

We Embrace Individuality We value what's important to each and every SBer. Whether that be providing access to cutting edge wellbeing support, or being part of one of our many diversity networks and communities. We also take personal development seriously - we're all about enabling big dreams.


We Trust Who We Hire We empower SBers with choice and flexibility to make the right decisions based on the needs of their roles and we've been working this way long before Covid19.

We all have a part to play - to learn more, to do more and to go further - in building this new reality that'll be befitting of the diversity of the customers we serve.

At Simply Business, we're all in.
