Which UK companies employ international applicants?

It can be challenging to identify companies that will sponsor international applicants, as policies may change depending on the role, location, and business needs. We recommend you:

• Understand visa requirements:
  • The Skilled Worker Visa has specific eligibility criteria, including a minimum salary threshold. Be sure to check these before applying, to avoid spending time on roles that don’t qualify.
  • The Graduate Visa can offer opportunities to work in the UK temporarily, including in roles that don’t meet the Skilled Worker Visa salary threshold.
• Do your research before applying:
  • Check company websites carefully.
  • Contact recruitment teams directly if sponsorship information isn’t clear.
