Hi I have upgraded my IPhone 10 to IPhone 13 Pro today. I have my personal phone on the Esim which has transferred across fine. The issue is with my inserted sim as i can’t see these contact phone numbers when I search. The inserted sim will be my works phone

Contacts are stored on the phone not the sim.

You need to back up to iCloud and restore to the new phone.
