The Covid-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on all of us. With over 680,000 self-employed people and landlords trusting us with their insurance, it’s our job to be there for our customers in difficult moments like these. We also have a responsibility to our employees and communities, who are at the heart of all we do. Now more than ever, it’s vital that we retain our strong sense of collective purpose – keeping our people informed on changes we’re making, and taking care of their health, wellbeing, and work-life balance. As a recognised B Corp, we’ve always been serious about our social responsibility. Our ongoing commitments to our partners and pledges won’t change, and we’re constantly assessing ways we can help others through this crisis – both big and small. We’ve paused recruitment for the time being – but we’ll be sure to keep you updated about future opportunities.
New Group CEO Group CEO David Summers has been with Simply Business for over 12 years – joining in 2007 as a Product Manager, before later heading up our Partnerships team. Having gone on to lead our Customer Care and Operations, David made the transition to CEO in 2017. He now oversees our UK and US businesses as Group CEO, after Jason Stockwood became Vice Chairman in October 2018. With over a decade of experience at Simply Business, David’s perfectly placed to reflect on the values that have helped the business grow to over 500,000 happy customers and, crucially, do so with an award-winning culture and a recognised positive social impact. David’s nuts and bolts knowledge of life at Simply Business – from his time running our contact centre, to his record level of appearances at company trips! – means he’s never too far from the detail, and he takes pride in meeting every new starter in the business over an informal lunch (and yes, it’s on him!)
