The Context
A rapidly growing UK tech company approached Cranbrook Legal to help obtain a sponsor license. They needed to hire international talent for roles such as software developers, data analysts, and cybersecurity experts to maintain their growth trajectory and innovation.
They were aware that they needed a sponsor licence but did not know the requirements and whether they met the eligibility criteria.
How We Assisted
We thoroughly assessed the company’s situation to ensure they met all Home Office requirements. Our team guided them through the compliance obligations and helped gather the necessary documentation, including business plans, financial statements, and employment records.
We advised on the HR systems and policies needed to comply with sponsor licence duties, reviewed their practices, and suggested improvements. We worked with our clients to advise them on how they could better meet the requirements.
The clients felt that with the suggested feedback, their application stood a better chance of approval, as they now understood the requirements in full and how their documents helped satisfy the requirements.
After collecting all the necessary documents, we completed and reviewed the online application form, drafted legal representations, and assisted them with submitting the application to the Home Office.
The Outcome
Eight weeks later, the company’s sponsor licence was approved. This success enabled them to recruit skilled professionals from around the world, significantly boosting their productivity and innovation. The company’s leadership appreciated our meticulous approach, which ensured a successful application on the first attempt. They are now excited about the future and the positive impact their expanded team will have on their growth.
