Stockport Council holds a Visa sponsorship licence but this can only be used for certain roles and this campaign does not qualify.

We have a commitment to improve employment opportunities for people with disabilities, care leavers and ex-military personnel. As part of the Guaranteed Assessment Scheme you will be guaranteed to be shortlisted for Assessment if you meet both the criteria for the scheme and the essential job role criteria.
