How to apply for these roles
- Use a UK CV with a clear profile, relevant skills and evidence for the requirements in the advert. Put recent education, projects, placements and measurable contributions where they are easy to find.
- Write a cover letter that answers the advert directly. Select a few essential duties and explain, with specific examples, how your experience matches them.
- Read the advert’s own wording on sponsorship carefully. An employer holding a sponsor licence does not establish whether a particular role is sponsored, so use the advert and the employer’s stated process as your guide.
- Check the closing date before investing time in an application, then submit early enough to review your documents and complete every required field. Keep a note of applications and any follow up action.
- For graduate schemes, prepare for online tests as well as written applications. Practise the relevant question types, read each instruction closely and allow time to complete the assessment without rushing.
Frequently asked questions
What should I check about Skilled Worker salary requirements?
Salary eligibility depends on the current Skilled Worker rules and the details of the job. Check the latest guidance on GOV.UK rather than relying on general figures or assumptions.
Are today’s roles suitable for graduates?
There are six roles in the graduate listings, including field intelligence, media, brand strategy and data centre operations. Other roles may suit early career applicants where the advert’s requirements match their skills, but several descriptions clearly call for specialist or senior experience.
How to read this list
A sponsor licence means the employer is allowed to sponsor visas. It does not mean every role it advertises will be sponsored. Check the advert, and the salary rules for the Skilled Worker visa on GOV.UK, before you apply.
Ask JobExpress whether a role fits your CV, and get a cover letter written for it.
