Recruiting International Staff

These pages outline the main visa routes including details of the new points-based immigration system and the obligations the University must fulfil in order to appoint international staff requiring a visa. 

Note: EU nationals not living in the UK before 31st December 2020 will most likely require a visa to work in the UK from 1st January 2021.

If you are recruiting to a specific post that will attract international applicants or if you want to check that the post you are advertising is eligible for a Skilled Worker visa, you can speak to your recruitment contact for further information or advice prior to advertising or contact the HR Immigration Team. 

These pages provide recruiting managers with general guidance only, please refer to the gov.uk website for specific details.
