10 CoS applications submitted in two hours
After buying a provider whose licence had been revoked, Spire re-sponsored all ten workers. Every application came back approved within three weeks.
Luke Donohue
CEO
Cornerstone Healthcare
Care
10 offers from one open day

Bethan Jones
People Services Lead
Wondercraft
Technology
From no sponsor licence to hiring engineers worldwide
A 15-person AI studio needed its first sponsored engineer. With the licence and certificates in place, Wondercraft now hires on fit and skill, not passport.

Head of Operations
We Care Group
Care homes
500 international staff across 35 homes, on one record

Meallmore
Care homes
A compliance team of two, across around 30 homes

Visa applications in one to two weeks, not months

Group Recruitment Manager
Caremark Poole & East Dorset
Homecare
18 sponsored employees, and £1,500 a month saved on advertising
Spreadsheets and the SMS left Caremark worried about every inspection. Now it can show the Home Office its records on the platform.
Martin Hall
Managing Director
Aston Transitional Care
Specialist care
Half of a 140-person team sponsored, without spreadsheets

Care homes
Compliance work 90% faster, with lower legal costs

Christian Airey
Business Director

Off outsourced immigration support, at a third of the cost

75% lower recruitment and immigration costs

No more agency cover while sponsored hires are on their way

Jabriel Raja
Managing Director
Saxon Care
Homecare
A sponsor licence, after turning away 80% of applicants
Without a licence, Saxon Care had to reject most overseas applicants. With one, it issued its first five certificates.
Stuart Webster
Commercial Manager
Every stage of sponsorship, covered end-to-end
Most of the people our customers sponsor are already in the UK, switching visa or changing employer. Wherever they start, sponsoring them, keeping them, and proving compliance when the Home Office calls all happen on one record, with the same advisers behind it.
Hiring
