Is this company allowed to sponsor you?

03 · The decision engine

Every role becomes a verdict, not a guess.

Other platforms hand you a database and wish you luck. SponsorMatch hands you a judgement on every role — with the reasoning shown, so you trust it.

Green to apply. Amber to verify. Red to walk away.

Each verdict comes from a transparent probability score — not a black box. We tell you which factor lifted the role, which factor dragged it down, and which factor disqualified it entirely. You stop sending applications into silence. You start moving forward.

  • Sponsor licence is active and A-rated — not lapsed, not B-rated, not under review
  • Salary clears the going-rate threshold for your SOC code, including the £41,700 floor
  • SOC code is on the open route — care workers and similar closed routes flagged Red automatically
  • Employer has actually sponsored someone recently — not just on a list
  • Seniority alignment — a graduate-level title with a senior-level threshold gets Amber, not false hope

The score is transparent.
So is the reasoning.

Seven weighted signals. Each one explainable in a sentence. Each one drawn from official UK data sources, not vibes. You can see exactly why every role got the score it did.

01 / Licence Status

Active & A-rated · 20 pts

Is the sponsor licence currently active and A-rated on the official Home Office register? Lapsed, B-rated, or revoked → automatic Red, regardless of every other factor.

02 / Sponsorship Recency

Have they hired internationally lately? · 18 pts

An employer who has actually issued CoSes in the last 12 months scores highest. A licence held but never used is worth far less than one being actively used.

03 / Salary Compliance · Blocker

Clears the threshold? · 25 pts

Does the advertised salary clear both the going rate for the SOC code and the £41,700 general floor? Fails here → the role cannot legally sponsor you, score capped low.

04 / Occupation Eligibility

Is the route open? · 12 pts

Some routes are closed. Care workers closed July 2025. Others now require RQF 6+. We know which ones, and we flag them so you don’t apply blind.

05 / Seniority & Fit

Will it survive offer stage? · 8 pts

A junior title with a senior threshold often collapses at offer stage. We catch this misalignment before you invest two weeks of effort.

06 / Employer Activity

Are they hiring now? · 10 pts

Live job count, recent postings, growth signals. A licensed sponsor with zero open roles is a different prospect to one posting weekly.

07 / Source Quality

Where the listing came from · 7 pts

An official company careers page beats a second-hand listing. Direct sources are weighted higher because they are less likely to be stale or duplicated.

04 · Visa runway mode

The product changes shape based on your clock.

No other platform treats visa expiry as anything more than background context. SponsorMatch treats it as the most important parameter in the entire feed. 45 days left and 18 months left should never see the same dashboard.

< 60 days

i
Why this matters. The Home Office’s own Graduate route evaluation found 75% of users find applying for jobs difficult — and short visa runway was a top barrier. The runway clock is the one thing every existing platform ignores. We made it first-class.
05 · What changes when you join

Your search stops feeling like a lottery.

Every morning you wake up to a shortlist that’s already passed the legal, financial and seniority checks. Not 300 listings to sift. A decision-ready brief.

Step 01

Tell us where you stand

Three minutes to set up. Profession, visa status, expiry date, target salary, preferred locations. That’s it. No CV upload required to start, though it sharpens the feed when you do.

Step 02

We run the register every night

While you sleep, we cross-reference fresh job listings against the Home Office sponsor register, the going-rate tables, and the SOC eligibility list. By 7am, your scored shortlist is ready.

Step 03

Only roles that pass arrive

Companies that can’t legally hire you never reach your inbox. Roles below the salary floor for your SOC are filtered. The remainder are ranked Green, Amber, Red.

Step 04

You know exactly why each verdict

Click any role to see the seven-component breakdown. Salary, licence, recency, route, seniority, activity, source — with the exact number each contributed.

Step 05

Outreach drafts, written for you

When a new sponsor lands on the register, we draft you a tailored introduction within 24 hours. Early contact wins. We make first contact effortless.

Step 06

One pipeline, one week, five moves

Saved, applied, interview, offer, closed. Follow-up reminders fire at day 14 automatically. You stop losing roles to your own admin.

06 · The Action Pack

A weekly brief that compresses your decisions.

Other tools hand you data. The Action Pack hands you a decision — this week’s ten best Green-rated targets, three brand-new sponsors to approach, the roles excluded for salary reasons (with the maths), one CV angle for your sector, one outreach email ready to send, and five priority actions ordered by impact.

It’s the difference between a search tool and a strategy assistant. It’s why our Premium subscribers don’t cancel — they escalate.

08 · Who built this & why

I built this because I needed it.

“Too many talented professionals burn their last few months of visa runway on roles that were never going to hire them. The information existed — the register, the salary tables, the SOC rules — it just wasn’t connected. So I connected it.”

SponsorMatch is the product I wished I’d had. It is built on the principle that people on a clock deserve the truth about every application before they spend an hour on it — not after.

Add a short founder paragraph here: background, why you built this, what your audience needs to know about your judgement on visa & sponsorship matters.

10 · FAQ

The honest answers.

Will SponsorMatch guarantee me a sponsored job?+
No, and you should distrust anyone who claims they can. We are a decision aid. We tell you which roles can legally sponsor you, which clear the salary floor, and which are most likely to convert — with the reasoning shown. The applications, interviews, and offers are still yours to win.
How is this different from UK Visa Jobs, Hunt UK, or Poli?+
Those tools hand you a database of licensed sponsors and wish you luck. We score every role on seven signals — including salary compliance and SOC eligibility, which the others don’t check — then turn the score into a Green / Amber / Red verdict. They show you facts. We show you a judgement.
Where does your data come from? Can you back the numbers up?+
The sponsor register is sourced from GOV.UK, refreshed nightly. Going-rate salary thresholds come from the Home Office occupation tables. Role inventory is built from a curated set of premium UK job sources and verified public-sector channels, then cross-referenced against the official register before scoring. Every verdict is explainable down to the seven components — see the breakdown above.
I’ve got 60 days of runway left. Is the £9.99 Sprint Pack worth it over the monthly?+
If you’re under 90 days of runway, almost certainly yes. Sprint Pack unlocks the full engine plus a complete Action Pack the day you sign up — the same content that takes a Standard subscriber a month to receive. It auto-downgrades at day 7 with no surprise renewal. Most Sprint users who get an interview within the week convert to Standard voluntarily.
What about my personal data? You’re asking visa-sensitive stuff.+
UK GDPR compliant. You can export your data as JSON or delete your account from inside the app (Article 17 / Article 20). We don’t sell data, ever. CVs are processed only to improve your match scoring and are stored on UK-region servers. See our privacy policy for the full detail.
Who’s behind this? It’s a small team, isn’t it?+
Yes. SponsorMatch is built by Proof Capital Group Ltd, a London-registered company. We’re a small founder-led team that’s lived the visa runway experience first-hand. See the founder section for who actually answers your emails. We’d rather be honest about our size than puff up with stock photos of an executive team that doesn’t exist.
Can I cancel any time? Free trial? Refund?+
Free tier is forever free, no card required. Monthly subscriptions cancel from inside the billing portal in two clicks — the moment you cancel, you keep access until the end of the billing period. Sprint Pack is a one-off and self-expires. Refunds are at our discretion if you raise a fairness concern within 14 days — written to a human, who replies.
