Right to work in the UK

In accordance with Home Office guidance, successful candidates will be required to provide evidence of their right to work in the UK before commencing employment. We have assessed this role and do not consider that we would be able to sponsor a successful candidate under the Skilled Worker route, as the role does not meet the relevant Home Office criteria. The successful candidate must therefore be able to demonstrate their own right to work during the recruitment process without Nestlé sponsorship.
