Guide
How to get a job in the UK from India
- 01Find an employer that can sponsor youYou need a confirmed job offer from an approved UK employer before you can apply for a Skilled Worker visa. Every employer on this page holds a Skilled Worker sponsor licence.
- 02Check the postingA licence doesn't mean every role is open to sponsorship. Look for lines like "must have the right to work in the UK", or ask the recruiter on the first call. We leave out postings that say the company can't sponsor.
- 03Check the salaryThe job must usually pay at least £41,700 a year or the going rate for the occupation, whichever is higher. If you're under 26 or a recent graduate, it can be 70% of the going rate, but at least £33,400.
- 04Get your certificate of sponsorshipOnce you accept the offer, your employer gives you a certificate of sponsorship (CoS), an electronic record. You must apply for the visa within 3 months of getting it.
- 05Already at one of these companies in India?The Senior or Specialist Worker visa is for moving to your employer's UK branch. If you'll earn under £73,900 a year, you need at least 12 months with the employer outside the UK, and the pay must be at least £52,500 or the going rate.
- 06Aged 18 to 30?The India Young Professionals Scheme lets Indian citizens aged 18 to 30 with a bachelor's degree or higher live and work in the UK for up to 2 years, without a job offer. Places go by ballot: there were 3,000 in 2026, and the 2026 ballots have closed.
