We provide visa sponsorship to applicants who require this in order to have the right to work in the UK, providing that the role you have been offered meets the requirements set by the Home Office.
Applicants requiring a Skilled Worker Visa (such as data analysts, IT and finance professionals, etc) will need to meet the salary threshold of £41,700. For a limited number of clinical posts (listed here), applications to the Health and Care Visa route will need to meet the national pay scale for their role or the minimum salary threshold of £25,000 (whichever is higher).
