About nursing jobs at licensed sponsors

Registered nurses and midwives are among the most-sponsored occupations in the UK, across NHS trusts, independent hospitals, mental health providers and nursing homes. These listings are at employers whose names match the Home Office register of licensed sponsors.

Working as a registered nurse or midwife in the UK requires registration with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC). Nurses trained abroad normally complete the NMC's test of competence before registration; many employers support candidates through it.

Look any employer up with the sponsor licence check, browse the full UK sponsor list, or compare a salary with the published rates in the salary calculator.
