In accordance with Home Office guidance successful candidates will be required to evidence their right to work in the UK before commencement of employment. This role is not one we would typically consider for sponsorship under the Skilled Worker route due to not meeting the required skill level; candidates are therefore encouraged to consider their own right to work options without Next sponsorship.
