🇬🇧 United Kingdom · Jobs

Where to find jobs in United Kingdom — major job boards, in-demand sectors, and how to apply.

The UK's official job-search service is Find a job, run by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP); much hiring also happens on commercial boards and company sites. Non-UK/Irish nationals usually need a work visa with a licensed sponsor before starting a job.

  • Find a job (GOV.UK) is the official DWP job-search service.
  • Most roles for non-UK/Irish nationals require a work visa, usually with a licensed sponsor (Certificate of Sponsorship).
  • Employers must check your right to work; you may need to provide a share code.
  • GOV.UK and ACAS set out employment rights and pay rules.
