We’re a business development bank owned by the Government but managed independently.
Who we are
The business finance market doesn’t always create the conditions that make it easy for businesses to thrive. In this complex landscape, we light the way, inspiring, informing and enabling businesses to follow a path that’s right for them.
We’ve been central to the delivery of coronavirus support schemes, and continue to help smaller businesses recover and grow through the Recovery Loan Scheme, the Bounce Back Loan Scheme Pay As You Grow options and Start Up Loans.
By providing better access to finance, supplying useful information and tools, and developing strong regional networks, we help shape the future for many smaller businesses across the UK. You’ll feel this sense of purpose as soon as you meet us. You’ll be able to make your own impact as soon as you join.

Culture & Values
We’re government-owned, so we have both a commercial and a social responsibility.
Our mission as an organisation is to drive sustainable growth and prosperity across the UK, and to enable the transition to a net zero economy, by supporting access to finance for smaller businesses.
Alongside that mission, we form partnerships with a range of charities. We give all colleagues regular opportunities to take part in fundraising and volunteering, so they can pursue their own ambitions while making a difference.
Everyone has something different to bring to the table. By appreciating those differences, we can attract the best people, develop and use their talents, and create a great place to work.
We believe diversity is a strength – without it, we can’t reach our potential, as individuals or as an organisation.
Everyone who joins British Business Bank has the opportunity to thrive. And our diversity and inclusion forum helps us incorporate diversity and inclusion into everything we do.
