All sponsors in Warwickshire

The local market

What the register says about Warwickshire

The sponsors here are mostly in professional and technical services, then it, software and media, hospitality, retail. Of the 397 licensed sponsors here, the ones who take on welders are the ones worth approaching first.

What they do

Licensed sponsors in Warwickshire, by industry

Within reach

Sponsors in the towns around Warwickshire

A driver or a fitter will travel for the right job, so these count too. The number is licensed sponsors in that town.

Two pools, one call

People already in the UK, and people we bring in

Already here

No sponsorship. Interviews in days, not months.

Drivers, mechanics, welders and fitters who are in the UK now with the right to work, and register with us because they want a change: indoors, days, nearer home, a better yard. Start date is their notice period, not a Department timeline. The quickest thing we do.

Overseas, trade tested

Work shown on video before you see a CV. Trade tested before you hire. Sponsorship handled with you.

Where the local pool is dry for your trade, or you want a bench for the year, we test people on real kit before anyone travels and handle the sponsorship paperwork with you. Longer, and the timeline is the Home Office's, but it is how the biggest yards in the country fill their rosters.

Most clients use both: the local pool for the gap now, the overseas bench for the growth. Nothing is charged to any candidate, in either pool.

How we fill it

Trade tested, paperwork handled, fixed fee

  1. 1

    The test

    Test pieces on the process you run, MIG or TIG, in the positions the job needs, assessed by a qualified assessor. In Johannesburg, Manila or a partner centre, before anyone travels. You get the score sheet. How the test is run

  2. 2

    The paperwork

    Certificate of Sponsorship, visa application, right to work checks, with you at every step. No licence yet? We walk you through the application.

  3. 3

    The landing

    Flights, accommodation, NI number, bank account and phone sorted, and someone checking in with them after they start, so they stay.

  4. 4

    The fee

    A fixed fee per placement, invoiced when they start. No retainer, no startup fee, and nothing is ever charged to the candidate.
