Work Permits – Sciences & Related Work

We have proven experience in managing applications on behalf of the Sciences and Related Work industries. From graduate level laboratory technicians and researchers to specialist consultants and scientists, we can provide you with an outline as to what options are available to you, together with detailed advice and guidance to ensure that your work permit application stands the best chance for success. We have a background in managing work permit applications on behalf of the top 500 UK employers in a diverse and wide ranging skill set. We also provide strategic advice at a senior level to some of the largest organisations in the UK, with regards to UK immigration and the issues that surround them.

Qualified and experienced professionals are highly sought after within the industry and can often operate within very niche markets. However, most positions are not recognised as a shortage occupation which means that application may still be subject to demonstrating that the UK employer has advertised for this vacancy prior to a work permit application being made.

In order to obtain a work permit, the position must require a high level of qualifications and/or experience. If the employer and/or the individual cannot show that this position meets the minimum level of skills required by the work permit scheme, then it is unlikely that an application can be made successfully.

The Home Office will expect to see evidence of the individual’s qualifications and professional experience to support the work permit application, together with relevant documentation from the UK employer. We will advise you on the most appropriate documents to support your application to best effect.

Contact us for a free work permit assessment with details of the position offered, the UK employer and details of the skills and qualifications that the individual has gained to date. We will provide you with a free assessment based on our experience of managing similar cases, details of any timing / immigration issues involved and a quote for managing this application on your behalf.
If you have not been offered a position within a UK company, then you cannot make a work permit application. You need to speak to recruitment agencies and employers directly. Alternatively you may be eligible for the Highly Skilled Migrant [HSMP] scheme. If you think you may be eligible for this scheme you should complete our HSMP assessment form.
