Please note that the salary for this role does not currently meet the minimum salary threshold required by UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) for sponsorship under the Skilled Worker route. As a result, visa sponsorship may only be available to candidates who qualify as a "new entrant" under the Skilled Worker regulations.

This may include individuals who are under 26 years of age, switching from a UK Student or Graduate visa (where eligible), undertaking postdoctoral research, or working towards a recognised professional qualification, registration, or chartered status. Sponsorship may also be available where another applicable legal exception to the minimum salary requirements applies.

If you do not meet any of the criteria above, we are unfortunately unable to offer Skilled Worker visa sponsorship for this position. We would encourage candidates to review the UKVI eligibility requirements carefully before applying.
