Employers need to hold a Senior or Specialist Worker sponsor licence to be able to sponsor workers for this visa type. This is so that the Home Office has evidence of the connection between your UK entity and overseas entity from which the worker will be transferred.
If you currently hold a Skilled Worker licence only, you can apply to add Senior or Specialist Worker sponsorship to this. This can be done online for an additional fee and we can assist with the same.
