As a potential employee, you cannot make an application for a UK work permit. An application must be made by the UK company that wishes to employ you.

If you do not yet have a job offer from an employer willing to make a work permit application on your behalf, you may wish to take a look at the Highly Skilled Migrant Programme (HSMP)

If you are the holder of a work permit, please remember that it allows you to work only for the employer who applied for it. If you want to work for a different employer, your current permit will not allow this and your prospective employer will need to apply for a new work permit in order to employ you.

If you have an employer who wishes to make an application we will be happy to speak to them. The best thing to do is to arrange for them to contact us for details of what to do.
