What a licence means

They can sponsor. That is all it says.

A sponsor licence lets an organisation assign a Certificate of Sponsorship to a worker on the routes it covers. It does not mean Centrica plc is hiring from abroad this month, only that it can, and has been checked by the Home Office to do so.

How to approach them

Ask the question early

Sponsorship is a yes or no per role. Ask in the first message whether the vacancy qualifies for a Certificate of Sponsorship; it saves everyone a wasted interview and marks you as someone who knows the system.

The register

The register records its rating as Temporary Worker (A rating), Worker (A rating).

Centrica PLC is the registered name (Companies House number 03033654), a public limited company on the register since 1995. The registered office is at Millstream Maidenhead Road, Windsor, Berkshire, SL4 5GD, SL4 5GD. Its filed activity puts it in energy, water and waste. It has traded under other names before, including Yieldtop Public Limited Company.

A licence says an organisation may sponsor; it does not say it is hiring today. The way to find out is the same as for any employer: the careers page, the job boards, and a direct approach with a UK-style CV that says early that sponsorship would be needed.
