Jobs with licensed sponsors
How these jobs are found
To hire most people from outside the UK, an employer needs a sponsor licence from the Home Office. The Home Office publishes every licensed organisation in the register of licensed sponsors, updated daily. Each employer here is matched against that register, and each advert is checked for wording that offers sponsorship.
Recruitment agencies often hold a licence for their own staff rather than for the roles they advertise, so confirm sponsorship with the employer before you apply.
Before you apply
Most sponsored workers come on the Skilled Worker visa, which has requirements on the job, its salary and your English. Check them on GOV.UK, which is the only reliable source for the current rules.

What does visa sponsorship mean in the UK?
To hire most people from outside the UK, an employer needs a sponsor licence from the Home Office. A licensed employer assigns the worker a certificate of sponsorship, which the worker uses to apply for their visa, usually the Skilled Worker visa.
Does a licensed sponsor have to sponsor me?
No. A sponsor licence means an employer can sponsor workers, not that every role it advertises is open to sponsorship. Check the advert or ask the employer before you apply. Recruitment agencies often hold licences for their own staff rather than for the roles they advertise.
How can I check whether an employer is a licensed sponsor?
The Home Office publishes the register of licensed sponsors on GOV.UK and updates it daily. The Public Jobs matches employers against that register, and you can search it yourself on GOV.UK.
