Is Virgin Active a licensed UK visa sponsor?

Yes. Virgin Active in London holds a UK sponsor licence and appears on the Home Office register of licensed sponsors, where it has been listed since 2013. That means it is permitted to sponsor eligible workers from overseas, though a licence is permission to sponsor rather than a guarantee that any particular vacancy is open to sponsorship.

What visa routes can Virgin Active sponsor?

Virgin Active is licensed for Global Business Mobility: Senior or Specialist Worker and Skilled Worker. Its licence is recorded on the register as "Worker (A rating)" — the rating reflects the Home Office's confidence in the sponsor's compliance record.

Where is Virgin Active based?

The register lists Virgin Active at 26 Little Trinity Lane, Mansion House, London, England, EC4V 2AR. This is the address on the sponsor licence, which is usually the head office — a sponsored role may be based at a different site.
