BakerHicks: does its 2027 graduate programme sponsor a UK visa?

No2027 Graduate Programme (civil and structural, building services, high voltage, architecture and BIM streams)

No. BakerHicks does not sponsor its 2027 graduate programme for international students who need a visa. BakerHicks is a multi-disciplinary design, engineering and project delivery consultancy. Its 2027 graduate roles are advertised on its own Greenhouse board as separate postings per discipline and office, covering civil and structural, electrical and mechanical building services, high voltage (power, distribution, protection and control, overhead lines, earthing), highways, geotechnical, architecture Part II, BIM and project controls, in offices such as London, Manchester, Warwick, Motherwell, Bristol, Derby and York. The civil and structural role describes a two-year graduate scheme with chartership mentoring. Every posting carries the same immigration statement: the firm will not consider anyone on the Graduate visa route or other time-limited visas, and only welcomes candidates whose status needs no Skilled Worker sponsorship now or in future.

BakerHicks, from its own careers pages

The catch: The exclusion covers Graduate visa holders as well as people who would need Skilled Worker sponsorship, so international students cannot use the Graduate route to get in. Many roles also carry security clearance requirements, with extra nationality or residency criteria in some cases.
