Bending Spoons: does its graduate roles sponsor a UK visa?
Only in part. Bending Spoons sponsors its graduate roles for some tracks or offices, not all. Bending Spoons is an Italian technology company that owns apps and software businesses, with offices in Milan, London, Madrid and Warsaw. Rather than a cohort scheme it advertises standing graduate roles, including Graduate software engineer, Graduate AI software engineer, Graduate security engineer, Graduate data scientist, Graduate product manager, Graduate growth manager and Graduate sales and account manager, each open to London among other locations. The graduate software engineer posting quotes typical London offers of £85,797 to £151,436, offers flexible start dates and the option to start part time before graduating, and expects new joiners to spend most days in the Milan office for their first few months, with a relocation package. Its recruiting FAQ says it can sponsor a visa or residency permit for the UK for residents of a listed set of countries, including all EU countries, the US, Canada, Switzerland, Norway, Turkey, Ukraine, Singapore and Israel, and considers other countries case by case.
