The Office of the Small Business Commissioner (OSBC) has launched a new webinar series to support small businesses struggling with late payments.

The Get Money Moving webinar series will see Small Business Commissioner, Emma Jones CBE (pictured), interview high profile guests on topics ranging from how they are implementing fair payment practices in their own businesses, through to views and moves to build a positive payment culture across the UK. 

The first episode went live on 2^nd March 2026, with Jambu Palaniappan, CEO of Checkatrade. Jambu and Emma discussed Jambu’s career journey, the value of digital tools to small businesses, and how to reduce the risk of late payments.

A new webinar published each month until end of the year, with upcoming guests including: 

• Ashley Armstrong, UK Business Editor, FT  
• Richard Davies, CEO, Allica Bank  
• Cas Paton, Founder, OnBuy

All webinars will be posted on the OSBC’s website, and webinars will be free to watch on YouTube. The webinars topics range from macro-economic views and the future of AI to practical how-to tips on getting paid and keep your money moving. 

Emma Jones, Small Business Commissioner, said:

“The team and I are on a mission to make life easier for small firms by getting money moving faster through the economy. There are some incredible people making prompt payment a reality and this new webinar series meets them and asks questions from how to pay suppliers on time through to effectively communicating the benefits of a positive payment culture. Interviews are snappy at only 20 minutes max and I hope you will take value from them.”
