Successful Sponsorship Licence Application for a Small Media Production Company
A small media production company approached us asking for our assistance in applying for a sponsorship licence and preparing compliance documents. The company is a multicultural research and creative agency which specialises in video production, video creation, marketing, content creation, and communications. They have a high social media following and have worked with a number of big brands across global cities. They wanted to apply for a sponsorship licence to hire foreign workers to combat the skills shortages that they were facing as a result of Brexit and the lockdown. The company required a sponsorship licence to expand and grow its business by recruiting more people in its research, strategy, and creative departments. The company identified X for the position of Market Research Analyst due to her extensive experience as a Researcher. X’s Tier 2 (General) visa was due to expire shortly so we expedited the sponsorship licence application. We collated all the relevant supporting documents and prepared the legal representations within 5 working days.
