Earlier this year, a preliminary Skills for Care report found that staff vacancies had risen by 52% to 165,000 unfilled posts in 2021-22 – the largest annual increase since records began in 2012-13. 

So what does this mean for you in Zimbabwe? It means opportunities 🙂

What do you need to get this Job?

You must meet all of the following requirements to be eligible for a Health and Care Worker visa:

  • you’re a qualified doctor, nurse, health professional or adult social care professional
  • your job is eligible for this visa
  • you’ll be working for a UK health and care sector employer that’s been approved by the Home Office
  • you’ll be paid the minimum salary or the ‘going rate’ for the type of work you’ll be doing - whichever is higher

If you already have a job offer from an approved employer

Your employer - also known as your sponsor - will check that you meet the eligibility requirements. They’ll give you a ‘certificate of sponsorship’ to prove this.

The certificate of sponsorship is an electronic record, not a physical document. It will have a reference number, which you’ll need for your visa application.

You must apply for your visa within 3 months of getting your certificate of sponsorship.

You must have a job offer from an approved UK employer before you apply for a Health and Care Worker visa.

Approved employers are also known as sponsors, because they are sponsoring you to come to or stay in the UK.
You must have a job offer from:

*the NHS
*an organisation providing medical services to the NHS
*an organisation providing adult social care
