Financial Accounts Managers - UK Visa Applications

Recruiting high-calibre financial accounts managers in an increasingly competitive global market can prove challenging for both private sector and public sector firms.

Restrictions on Skilled Worker (formerly known as Tier 2) visas and a buoyant international recruitment market can prove a challenge to meeting recruitment targets and appointing financial accounts managers with the right background and expertise to take UK businesses forward successfully.

Duncan Lewis business immigration solicitors can advise companies on the international recruitment of financial accounts managers, who are eligible to work in the UK under the regulations covering occupations skilled to NQF Level 6.

Duncan Lewis business immigration lawyers frequently advise financial professionals and companies on Skilled Worker (formerly known as Tier 2) applications – as well as advising on recruiting recent overseas graduates who have qualified in the UK.

Any Skilled Worker (formerly known as Tier 2) applicants can be sponsored for jobs in certain occupations – and the government has drawn up a list of eligible occupations for financial accounts managers wishing to apply for a Skilled Worker (formerly known as Tier 2) visa to take up a position in the UK.

UK Visas & Immigration regulations set out in the Codes of Practice for Skilled Workers such as financial accounts managers.

Under the regulations, the sort of roles within a company that would be eligible for a Skilled Worker (formerly known as Tier 2) visa application include:

• Accounts manager
