My company provide third party company car cover only. Do I need to take out additional cover for passengers and myself?

I would suggest you take out cover for yourself if you do a lot of miles, but your passengers do not need any as would be covered under your employer's insurance, unless it stipulates you are not allowed to carry passengers. Ask your employer for a copy of their insurance cover. It sounds like they are self insuring. If they are, risk to passengers will require them to have a separate insurer underwriter for that risk.
