Hello, I have an LLB and LLM LPC but it’s been hard to find legal roles that offer visa sponsorship. I saw some advice about compliance or business service roles and would like to please know more about that. I am a legal assistant now but looking for anything within my knowledge and skills that would offer a visa sponsorship. Still perusing training contracts and paralegal roles but they are difficult to get.

Many business service roles won’t sponsor unless they have a very specific set of knowledge or are more tech related.
The challenges with the visa system that came in at April this year, particularly the increase in the minimum salary threshold, will make many entry level business roles not meet the basic criteria. There is also an issue where they tend to be as hoc roles and necessarily don’t have the budget associated with them to pay for visa fees.
