Holding a licence is the expensive, slow part done. For Imerys Minerals Ltd the question each time is only whether the role and the pay fit the current rules, and that is checked per vacancy.

What a licence means

The slow part is done

Getting a licence takes an application, checks and a fee, and most employers never bother. Imerys Minerals Ltd has, which means when a role qualifies the certificate can be assigned without months of preparation.

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.

For candidates
