Important Information About Sponsorship
Applicants must have the right to work in the UK.
Care Outlook states that it is unable to sponsor applicants applying from outside the UK because current Home Office rules do not permit international recruitment for care workers in the same way as previously. However, candidates who are already living in the UK with valid immigration permission may be considered where they are eligible to move into the Skilled Worker route under applicable transitional arrangements.
All other applicants must have a full and unrestricted right to work in the UK. Right-to-work eligibility will be checked in line with Home Office requirements before an offer is confirmed.
