UK Points-based immigration system
Applications from job seekers who require sponsorship to work in the United Kingdom (UK) are welcome and will be considered alongside all other applications. Please note that from 1 January 2021, to work in the UK, all candidates who are not UK or Republic of Ireland (RoI) nationals require sponsorship unless you have permission to work via another route. Non-UK/RoI candidates wishing to apply can self-assess the likelihood of obtaining a Certificate of Sponsorship here: Work in the UK - GOV.UK.
It is vital that you provide full and accurate details of your current immigration status on the application form. Overseas applicants applying for entry clearance into the UK must present a criminal record certificate from each country they have resided in continuously or cumulatively for 12 months or more in the past 10 years. Guidance can be found here: Criminal records checks for overseas applicants - GOV.UK.
If you are applying for a vacancy in health or adult social care, you may be eligible to apply for the Health and Care Worker visa instead, which is cheaper to apply for and does not require paying the annual immigration health surcharge.
Communications
Throughout the application process, communication will be via e-mail. Please check your e-mail account and Trac account regularly. References are also requested by email (where possible). To speed up the recruitment process, please provide an email address for all referees when completing your application form.
