  • Provide Expertise: Draft supporting letters for visas and Indefinite Leave to Remain, acting as a knowledgeable guide for colleagues across the business.

What you will bring

We are looking for someone who is quietly confident and passionate about detail. You should be:

  • Highly Organised: You take responsibility for doing the right thing, ensuring 100% accuracy in every relocation contract and visa application.

  • A Natural Collaborator: You thrive when working in a team and believe that openness and discussion lead to the best results.

  • Growth-Minded: You never stand still. You are always looking to learn new skills and evolve your expertise in immigration legislation.
