In line with recent UK Government updates, please be aware that from 9 April 2025, the minimum salary threshold for Skilled Worker visas, including the Health and Care Visa route, has increased to £25,000 per year.
This applies to roles paid in accordance with NHS pay bands, meaning entry-level Band 3 positions no longer meet the criteria for sponsorship. If you require visa sponsorship to work in the UK, you will be asked to provide further information during the application process to confirm that you meet the updated eligibility requirements.
