Employers licensed to sponsor Global Business Mobility visas

Global Business Mobility covers five routes for moving staff into the UK from an overseas business: Senior or Specialist Worker (the successor to the Intra-Company Transfer route), Graduate Trainee, UK Expansion Worker, Service Supplier and Secondment Worker. These are transfer routes rather than open recruitment, and none of them leads to settlement.
