About us

Built by international job seekers, for international job seekers

Work Visa Sponsors turns the Government's register of licensed sponsors into a tool you can search, filter and act on. Your job search starts with employers who can actually sponsor you.

Our story

It started with two students and a very long spreadsheet

This idea grew out of the curiosity of two foreign students searching and applying for jobs with Government-approved visa sponsors.

Hours spent combing through the Government database of approved sponsors laid bare an obvious gap: there was no easy way to filter prospective employers by the things that matter: location, industry and the visa routes they can sponsor.

Work Visa Sponsors helps international job seekers bypass the difficult task of identifying fitting employers by providing a database of the information that matters about visa sponsors, so you can filter companies by preferred location, required visa type and industry. Then you can find their vacancies.
