This role likely qualifies for a Skilled Worker visa
SOC 2235 (80% match) is an eligible occupation, and PRIMARY CARE SHEFFIELD LIMITED is a licensed sponsor. That is our reading of the rules. Whether they issue a Certificate of Sponsorship is still their call.
This could also be SOC 2233 (Registered specialist nurses, Specialist nursing role within ADHD service) or SOC 2232 (Registered community nurses, Community/primary care setting nursing work). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
About the role
Were excited to offer an opportunity for a Nurse to join our ADHD service, working 15 hours per week. This is a great opportunity to be part of something new, make a real difference and help shape the service as it grows.
Please note: We reserve the right to close this vacancy early if we receive a sufficient number of suitable applications, so we encourage you to apply as soon as possible.
