UK Visa Requirements

Candidates from the following countries do not require a work permit in order to take up employment in the UK:

  • Nationals from European Economic Area (EEA) member countries: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Hungary, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Republic of Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Romania, United Kingdom. 
    Please note that if a candidate is from the Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Slovakia or Slovenia, they will be required to register under the Worker Registration Scheme. Furthermore, candidates from Romania or Bulgaria will need to seek authorisation from the Home Office before starting a job in the UK.
  • Citizens of Switzerland.
  • Commonwealth citizens who were allowed to enter or to remain in the UK on the basis that a grandparent was born here (ancestry).
  • Spouses, unmarried partners and dependants of people who hold UK work permits or whose endorsement in their passport places no restriction on their employment in the UK.

  • Individuals who have permission to work in the UK under the Highly Skilled Migrant Programme (HSMP)  and who have leave to enter or remain in the UK on that basis.
  • Commonwealth citizens, British Dependent Territories citizens and British Overseas citizens eligible to work in the UK under the Working Holiday Maker Scheme.

  • Overseas students studying at UK institutions who meet the conditions under which they are eligible to work in the UK.

 The Work Permit Scheme

UK Work Permits are issued for a specific job with a specific employer for a specified period of time, up to a maximum of 5 years.  It is the employer’s responsibility to apply for a work permit on behalf of the candidate or potential employee. Before a candidate can apply for a work permit they must first have a received a suitable job offer.
Work Permit applicants are not allowed to start work in the UK until their work permit has been approved and leave to enter (or remain) in the UK has been granted on that basis.

 The Highly Skilled Migrant Programme (HSMP)

This points-based programme is designed to allow highly skilled and experienced individuals to enter or remain in the UK with a view to seeking and taking work. It is the most preferable means by which a foreign national candidate can seek or take up employment in the UK, largely because unlike work permit holders, HSMP holders are not required to have a job offer and they are not tied to a specific employer.

The Working Holiday Maker Scheme

The working holidaymaker scheme allows Commonwealth citizens aged between 17 and 30 to come to the UK for up to two years with the intention of undertaking paid work as a part of a working holiday. Working holidaymakers are only eligible to work for a maximum period of one year out of the two years they are entitled to holiday in the UK.

“I was very pleased with my consultant, she was always informative and kept me updated at all times. I was getting a bit panicked when I had heard nothing and she was quick to reassure me that as soon as she heard anything I would too. I don’t feel she could have been any better during the time I was in contact with her and I am very happy with the service that she provided. Excellent, keep up the good work”

Mark

“I have now finished my first week  and it's all going well. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for all your hard work, you've been of great assistance. It took you 2 days to find me 2 interviews, and a week to get me an offer, I couldn't' have hoped for better! It's now the second time you help me find the right job and I will certainly keep your phone number handy (although I hope not to have to use it for a while!) Once again thank you very much for all your help.”

Andy

“Just wanted to drop you a quick e-mail now that I have settled into my new role to say Thank You !
The job that you found for me is working out very well and I am enjoying it, you said that I would fit in with the sort of people that worked here and you were right.”
Toby

“From when you first contacted me in regards to a job within the moving industry you were always very informative and kept me up to date on any developments. It is always hard when you are looking for a new job because you want to know if you have been successful as soon as possible and waiting is always the hard part. I did not have to wait long because you got me the interview here within about 2 weeks. So thanks again for all your help and for being so positive when I was looking for work, sometimes a friendly voice is all you need to hear to get back into the positive thinking mode again and say to yourself ‘Yes I will get that job’, and I did !”
Jane

“After successfully being offered the role, I would like to say a huge thank you. Your hard work and professional approach not only secured me an interview but also made be feel prepared and confident when meeting the company. I have already recommended you and Red Recruit to my friends who are also in the industry and I am sure you may get some calls shortly. Thank you again, it wouldn't have happened with out you.”
Lloyd

“Since I was put in touch with Red Recruit, by my brother who Red had found employment for, I received a very professional service indeed. My consultant was helpful, informative and always available on the other end of the phone. Once they had secured an interview for me she forwarded me some useful interview tips and this helped me greatly. Though it took some time for us to get confirmation that I was the successful candidate. Red  kept me up to date with phone calls and emails. If I do need to seek employment again I would gladly contact Red and would recommend her and Red Recruit to any friends or family.”
Graham

“Hi, I just wanted to say thank you again for doing such a great job for me and Andy, 100% interview success record is quite impressive, next time I'm in Maldon I'll drop you in some flowers.”
