Sponsorship

Sponsorship chance

Not derived. We hold too little to place this role on the scale.

We hold too little public record data about this employer, occupation and salary to say anything about sponsorship for this role.

Confidence: low
  • A recruitment agency posted this advert, so the employer who would hold the licence is not named.
  • The full advert has not been read yet — we hold only the summary the job board gave us, and the employer's own wording on sponsorship may be in the rest of it.

Why

  • Against: Salary is below the going rate

    £40,000, from the advert, falls £2,500 short of the going rate for occupation code 3113 of £42,500.

    Immigration Rules Appendix Skilled Occupations

  • In favour: Eligible only through a shortage list

    Occupation code 3113 is not eligible in its own right, but appears on the TSL (Engineering technicians), due to be removed on 31 Dec 2026.

    Immigration Rules shortage lists (ISL and TSL)

  • Not established: The advert says nothing about sponsorship

    We searched the summary the job board gave us for the usual wording in both directions and found none of it. The full advert has not been read yet.

    The advert itself

  • Not established: Posted through a recruitment agency

    Electus Recruitment posted this advert, so the employer who would hold the licence is not named and cannot be checked.
