Companies House cannot show who holds the licence roles or whether a change was reported to the Home Office, so these are prompts to check against your own records, not findings. ## Sponsored jobs No listings matched yet. Job listings are harvested daily from Reed, Adzuna, Jooble and Careerjet and matched back to the register by employer name. ## Common questions about Oceanium Ltd ### Is Oceanium Ltd a licensed UK visa sponsor? No. Oceanium Ltd in Oban is no longer on the Home Office register of licensed sponsors (removed on 3 August 2026), and Companies House shows the company has ceased trading. It cannot sponsor new visa applications. ### When did Oceanium Ltd leave the sponsor register? Oceanium Ltd left the register on 3 August 2026. Companies House shows the company was winding up or had ceased trading. GOV.UK gives no reason, so this does not establish why the licence ended. ### What visa routes can Oceanium Ltd sponsor? Oceanium Ltd was licensed for Skilled Worker. Its licence rating on the register is "Worker (A rating)". ### Where is Oceanium Ltd based? The register lists Oceanium Ltd at Malin House, Suite10 The European Marine Science Park, Dunbeg, Oban, Scotland, PA37 1SZ. This is usually the head office; the job itself may be somewhere else. ### How current is this information?
