Your expertise is priceless. Your protection should be, too

As a management consultant, your expertise helps businesses thrive, but even the sharpest strategies can face setbacks. A miscommunication, a missed target, or an unhappy client could lead to costly consequences.

Our insurance policies are designed to protect you from those risks, covering everything from professional liability to an accident at the office. With the right coverage, you can focus on delivering results without the stress of what might go wrong.

Recommended Insurance for Management Consultants

Professional Indemnity Insurance

Professional Indemnity Insurance protects you if a client claims your advice or strategies were negligent and caused them financial loss. In a field where decisions can have far-reaching effects on a company’s operations and profitability, a client may pursue legal action to recover damages if something goes wrong. This insurance covers the legal costs of defending you, as well as any compensation you may be liable to pay.



Public Liability Insurance

Public Liability Insurance is vital for management consultants who meet with clients on-site or conduct presentations at client offices or public venues. This insurance protects you if a client, visitor, or member of the public is injured or if property is damaged by you whilst working. For example, if a client trips over a stray cable or there’s an accidental spill at a presentation, this policy covers legal costs and compensation claims. 



Income Protection Insurance

Income Protection Insurance provides financial support if illness or injury prevents you from working. As a management consultant, your income relies on consistent client engagement and project management. If health issues temporarily stop you from working, income protection insurance provides a monthly benefit at an amount of your choosing for up to 12 months, covering essential expenses while you recover. 

Frequently Asked Questions

If you're a self-employed management consultant, having your own insurance is highly recommended. It protects you in case of accidental damage, injuries, or even legal claims. Plus, it gives clients peace of mind, knowing they’re working with a responsible, professional service provider. So, while it's not always legally required, it's a smart investment that can safeguard both your finances and your reputation.



The cost of your insurance depends on factors like the type of work you do, your annual turnover, and the level of cover you need - every business is different. You’re in control of your policy, so you’ll only pay for the cover that’s right for you. Plus, with our price-match guarantee, if you find an equivalent policy cheaper elsewhere, we’ll do our best to match it. And for most trades, our premiums stay the same for turnovers up to £250,000 per year.

  • Professional Indemnity - from £270 per annum
  • Public Liability - from £55 per annum
  • Employers Liability - from £55 per annum (can only be purchased alongside Public Liability)
