About By Miles
Who We Are
Founded in 2018, By Miles was born from a simple yet revolutionary idea: the less you drive, the less you should pay for car insurance. We launched the UK's first real-time pay-by-mile policies, fundamentally transforming the car insurance industry with our innovative, customer-first approach.
Since our inception, we've achieved remarkable milestones—covering over 500 million miles of driving for our members and earning the title of Best Car Insurance Provider three times. Backed by the Direct Line Group, one of the UK's leading insurance providers, we continue pushing boundaries and challenging industry norms while maintaining a culture deeply rooted in fairness, respect, and ambition.
What We Do
By Miles specializes in providing pay-by-mile car insurance policies specifically designed for drivers who use their cars less frequently. Our service is ideal for occasional drivers, weekend explorers, remote workers, and anyone who wants flexible and fair insurance that accurately reflects their actual driving habits.
With real-time tracking technology and transparent pricing, we ensure our customers only pay for the miles they actually drive, making car insurance more affordable and accessible than traditional fixed-premium policies. Our innovative approach combines a small fixed monthly cost with a per-mile rate, giving drivers complete control over their insurance expenses.
Our commitment to innovation, transparency, and exceptional customer satisfaction drives everything we do as we continue to reshape the car insurance landscape in the UK. We're not just an insurance company—we're a technology-driven business focused on making insurance fairer for everyone.
Working at By Miles
At By Miles, we believe in challenging the status quo—not just in our products, but in our workplace culture too. We foster an environment where respect, fairness, and personal growth are paramount, creating a space where every team member can thrive both professionally and personally.
Our team works from wherever they are most productive, whether that's in our central London office or anywhere else across the UK. Flexibility isn't just a buzzword here—it's deeply ingrained in our culture and how we operate day-to-day. We genuinely encourage our employees to work in a way that suits their personal lives and individual circumstances.
We offer diverse working arrangements including part-time work, job sharing, compressed hours, and even sabbaticals after three years of service. We understand that life doesn't fit into a one-size-fits-all box, and neither should your career. Our approach to flexibility means you can build a working pattern that supports your wellbeing, family commitments, and personal ambitions.
Collaboration, innovation, and mutual support define our team culture. We're a close-knit group of passionate individuals united by our mission to make insurance fairer, and we're always looking for talented people who share our values.
