What Aston University's sponsor licence covers

A Skilled Worker licence lets Aston University sponsor overseas workers for jobs in an eligible occupation code, normally paid at least £41,700 or the going rate for the job, whichever is higher. The licence is not tied to particular roles, so any eligible job the company offers can be sponsored.

Applying for a job with Aston University

  1. Find an open role on Aston University's own website or a job board — the register does not list vacancies.
  2. Check the job's SOC occupation code is eligible and the salary meets the minimum for that code.
  3. If you are offered the job, the company assigns you a Certificate of Sponsorship and you apply for your visa.
  4. Budget for the visa fee and healthcare surcharge with the visa cost calculator.
