No plates show this signal yet. Checked 7 October 2026.
Logos belong to their owners and identify employers listed on a public register. Listing does not mean an employer will sponsor any particular role.
It is a separate visa route, not a job offer. Read the Global Talent branch on Plan B to see whether it fits you before you rule a firm in or out.
Sponsorship at a trading firm can change by office and by role. 5 of the 9 firms here say something on their own pages; read the quote on each plate for the London role.
None of these firms shows a graduate salary on the pages read, so every pay lamp reads Ask. Check the offer against the threshold when it arrives with the salary rule.
Not necessarily. Some firms say sponsorship changes from office to office and role to role. Ask about the London role you are applying for, by name.
A quote that says "open to" or "depends on the role" is not a yes for your role. The words lamp reads Ask until the firm says it sponsors this programme.
The firm was not found on the register snapshot under the names searched. Check the register yourself; the London entity can have a different name.
