That is more than the 67 new roles seen the day before, against a daily average of 120 over the past week.
What stands out today
Hiring is concentrated in London, with 108 of the listed roles there, while Manchester has five, Cambridge three, and Birmingham and York two each. Today’s total of 172 is higher than yesterday’s 67 and the daily average of 120 for the week. Finance and insurance is also prominent, with 34 roles, alongside technology and software’s 55.
The role mix leans towards specialist and experienced work. Technology includes performance engineering, software engineering, product design, infrastructure, security assurance and data flow, while finance includes private credit, banking service, executive support, sales and financial crime controls. The graduate list is much smaller, with an engineering internship, and health and care roles focus on technical data and senior risk leadership.
For graduates and early career applicants, the strongest broad areas today are technology and finance, but many descriptions ask for established technical, analytical, commercial or administrative capability. The engineering internship offers a clearer early career route, while other applications may need evidence of relevant projects, customer work, financial modelling, design practice or regulatory understanding. Read each advert closely before deciding where your experience fits.

How to apply for these roles
- Use a UK style CV with clear headings, concise evidence and dates in reverse chronological order. Put the skills most relevant to the advert near the top and check that your contact details are easy to find.
- Write a cover letter that answers the advert rather than repeating your CV. Use specific examples to show how you meet the duties, skills and behaviours requested.
- Read the advert’s own wording about sponsorship carefully. An employer holding a sponsor licence does not establish that a particular role is sponsored, and the advert may state a restriction, as one role today does.
- Check the closing date and application instructions before you start. Prepare documents and references early, because a suitable role can stop accepting applications once its stated process ends.
- For graduate schemes, set aside time for online tests as well as the application form. Practise the relevant reasoning or situational exercises, then complete them in a quiet setting and follow every instruction.
Frequently asked questions
Which roles look most accessible to graduates today?
The listed graduate opportunity is an engineering internship. Other roles may suit early career applicants if their descriptions match your evidence, but several call for experienced, specialist or senior capabilities, so check the requirements carefully.
Where can I check the Skilled Worker salary rules?
Check the current Skilled Worker salary rules and eligibility guidance on GOV.UK. Also read the individual advert, because the role’s own wording may state whether it meets the relevant requirements.
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.
