Every programme and stage at Aviva

“Please note this job role isn't sponsorable under the Home Office points based system so therefore Aviva cannot provide visa sponsorship for this programme. To apply, you'll need indefinite right to work in the UK.”

Aviva, from its own careers pages

The catch: On top of the residency rule, Aviva requires you to spend at least 50% of your working time physically in England to be eligible, so a UK-resident applicant based mainly in Wales or Scotland for a role based in England would still need to relocate part of the week.

Does Aviva sponsor visas for its technology and change apprenticeship pathway, levels 3?

No. Aviva does not sponsor its technology and change apprenticeship pathway, levels 3 for international students who need a visa. Aviva's own Technology and Change apprenticeship page states the role is not sponsorable under the Home Office points-based system, so Aviva cannot provide visa sponsorship, and applicants need indefinite right to work in the UK. It separately requires having lived in the UK or EEA for at least three years by the apprenticeship start date, and being available full time from the start date. The page describes the most recent published intake starting September 2026, paying £26,700, based in Norwich and York, and running 18 months to 4 years across Levels 3 to 6; no 2027-dated page had been published as of 22 September 2026 and live roles showed as 0 open.

The pay for this scheme is not published clearly enough to judge against the threshold.
