The catch: Because eligibility is described purely in academic terms with no right-to-work statement at all, treat sponsorship as genuinely unconfirmed rather than assuming either a yes or a no; the standard Level 7 apprenticeship levy funding rules that block sponsorship and require UK residency are the reasonable default even though this firm has not said so itself.
