If you employ overseas specialists in tech, pharma or other fields, find out about the benefits Skilled Worker Visas can bring to your business and how you can source the best talent in a competitive global market.

The UK adopted a new immigration system and according to the latest government statistics, the number of work visas issued was higher in the year ending June 2022 than in any year since records began. The vast majority of work visas issued in 2022 went to non-EU nationals, with the scale of non-EU work migration rising by nearly 80% under the new system. This is partly due to the liberalising of the Skilled Worker visa and the end of EU free movement.

In this informative Lunch & Learn session Demetris Demetriou, Head of Legal and & Paola Barbato, Solicitor at Davidson Morris Immigration Solicitors, will provide an overview of the new immigration system.  Anne Morris, Founder and Director will also be attending. They will cover some of the key visa routes:

  • What is a sponsor licence and why you need one for growth.
  • Why Sponsored work visa options including Skilled Worker and Global Business Mobility can help your business.
