Immigration Solicitor Manchester, Birmingham or London On-site / Hybrid Permanent, Full-time Salary negotiable Make immigration work for the people who care: Transforming Support provides person-centred supported living and outreach for adults with learning disabilities, autism and complex needs across the UK. The people who deliver that care — our support workers — are the heart of everything we do, and a significant proportion of them join us from overseas. Getting their immigration right isn't a back-office task. It's what keeps our services staffed, our tenants supported, and our promise of quality of life intact. We are need an experienced Immigration Solicitor on a full-time, permanent basis to take ownership of this responsibility and support our long-term plans. Why this role, and why now We're a growing provider in a sector under intense regulatory scrutiny. Sponsor-licence compliance, Home Office audits and the fast-changing rules around the Health & Care Worker and Skilled Worker routes carry real consequences — for our licence, our people and the vulnerable adults who rely on us. We want a safe pair of hands who can step in from day one, give us confidence we're getting it right, and leave us in a stronger position than they found us. What you'll own: Managing our sponsor licence and compliance duties end to end — Sponsorship Management System (SMS), reporting duties, record-keeping and audit-readiness. Advising on Skilled Worker and Health & Care Worker visa applications, extensions, changes of circumstance and the impact of evolving Immigration Rules on our workforce. Running right-to-work checks and processes, and tightening our systems so they're robust and consistent across every region we operate in. Preparing for and responding to UKVI compliance visits, audits and any enforcement contact. Being the trusted adviser to HR, recruitment and senior leadership — translating complex rules into clear, practical decisions. Identifying risk early and building durable processes, templates and guidance the team can rely on after your assignment ends. What you'll bring: Qualified Solicitor (or Chartered Legal Executive / experienced OISC Level 3 / IAA-accredited practitioner) with a strong business immigration background. Deep, current knowledge of sponsor licensing, the points-based system and the Health & Care Worker / Skilled Worker routes — ideally with health and social care sector exposure. A track record of handling UKVI compliance and audits with calm authority. The ability to hit the ground running Clear, human communication: you can give a nervous new starter and a board director the answer each of them needs. Sound judgement, discretion and a genuine care for the mission behind the paperwork. The practicalities: Type: Full-time, Permanent, Hybrid Location: Based in Manchester, Birmingham or London, with regular office attendance expected. This is a collaborative, on-site role working closely with our HR and leadership teams. Why Transforming Support: You'll be doing immigration work with a point to it. Every visa secured and every compliance gap closed means a support worker stays in post and an adult with complex needs keeps the consistent, trusted care that helps them live more independently. We're person-centred about the people we support — and we extend that same respect to the people who join our team. How to Apply: Send your CV and a short note on your relevant experience and earliest availability. We're reviewing applications on a rolling basis and interviewing quickly, so early applications are strongly encouraged. Transforming Support is committed to safeguarding and to building a diverse, inclusive team. Appointment is subject to satisfactory references and relevant pre-employment checks. Other suitable skills and experience includes: Immigration Solicitor, Senior Immigration Solicitor, Business Immigration Solicitor, Immigration Caseworker, Immigration Consultant, Sponsor Licence Compliance Manager, Immigration Compliance Manager, Skilled Worker Visa Specialist, UKVI Compliance Officer, Immigration and Nationality Adviser.
