Sponsorship allows a UK employer to hire a non-UK resident under immigration routes such as the Skilled Worker Visa.
An employer must hold a Sponsor Licence issued by the Home Office, and each sponsored worker must receive a Certificate of Sponsorship (CoS) to apply for their visa.
For professionals in the health and social care sector, sponsorship is common for roles such as:
- Care assistants and senior care workers
- Support workers in residential or domiciliary care
- Nurses and healthcare assistants
Once your visa is approved, you can work for the licensed employer named on your CoS, under the specific terms of your visa.
