Simply Business is an insurance provider specializing in small business insurance. The company offers online and phone-based services for business owners to choose insurance policies.

Simply Business

Founded in 2005 - now with offices in Boston and the UK - Simply Business is an online business insurance brokerage that specialises in one thing: protecting the businesses our customers are working hard to build. We’re doing this by simplifying the insurance-buying process for all small businesses, blending together a combination of technology, data, and insurance knowledge. Bottom line, we’re passionate about building an outstanding product for our customers - one that empowers their entrepreneurial spirit.

More importantly, we’re doing it all while taking care of our people: Simply Business was named the #1 Best Company To Work For by the Sunday Times in both 2015 and 2016 and in 2017 was certified as a B-Corp for our efforts in society and the environment.

How important is business insurance for UK SME owners? And how do you determine the right level of cover for your business?

We recently teamed up with Barclays Business Banking to record a masterclass on all things business insurance.

Recognising and rewarding success is a huge part of the culture here at Simply Business. We strive to make sure every SBer feels inspired to go above and beyond for our customers every day.

Which is why we wanted to do something special to celebrate. Recently, 750 of our people got together for the first ever SB Fest and our annual SB Awards – a celebration of all we’ve achieved so far in 2023. Teams from all over the world (including from our Boston, Atlanta, Northampton, and Poland hubs) came together in London for a day of fun, food, and fairground rides.

After an inspirational talk from Dame Denise Lewis DBE, we got to recognise the teams and individuals who inspire and innovate us all at the SB Awards. We want to say a huge congratulations to all our winners and nominees – we can’t thank you enough for all you do at SB.

And we couldn’t spend a day recognising what makes Simply Business so special without including our customers. Thanks to all our customers who came down to share their businesses with us – meeting you was a great reminder of why we do what we do.

Thanks again XO Chocolate London, Socko, Mama Lolly, Matchbox Jewellery, Battersea Biltong LTD, Wilder Floral, Anti-Socialites, and No.3 Interior!

A huge congratulations to all our award winners – and thank you to those who helped organise the event.

And the winner of our 2023 UK Business Boost grant is…FAIR-WELL! 

It was a tough decision, but our expert judging panel valued Fair-Well’s commitment to helping both the planet and their local community – as well as their business skills.

Here’s the moment our UK CEO Alan Thomas surprised owner Claire and told her she was the winner of the £25,000 grant.

With rising interest rates, high energy prices and recent news that there has been a spike in UK firms going bust, small business owners will be waiting with bated breath to hear what support they will receive from the chancellor in his Autumn Statement on November 22. 

Alan Thomas, UK CEO at Simply Business, one of the UK’s largest providers of small business insurance comments on the upcoming Autumn Statement: The UK’s small businesses are some of the most enterprising within the private sector, and their success is essential to economic growth - something which the prime minister identified as a top priority at the start of the year.
