Health & Care Workers

Sponsor Licence Specialists (Development) > Health & Care Workers

Do you need to sponsor a skilled worker? We can help manage your immigration requirements.

 

Why should I consider employer individuals from outside the UK?

 

With a shortage of home grown talent, the Health & Care sector has always looked outside the UK to fill those roles requiring particular skills or knowledge. This position has not changed, and there continues to be a lack of investment in the UK to train those seeking a career in Health & Care. Until this changes there is no doubt that the UK Health & Care sector will need to engage skilled workers from around the world.

  • No history of failing to carry out sponsorship duties.
  • The business offers genuine employment that meets the relevant skill level and appropriate rate of pay.

If you’re unsure whether or not your business meets the criteria required, our team can discuss your position and advise you accordingly.
