Frontier Economics: does its analyst programme sponsor a UK visa?

Yes, with conditionsAnalyst Programme

Yes. Frontier Economics sponsors its analyst programme for eligible international graduates. The economics consultancy recruits analysts into a rotation scheme across its practice areas. It asks for at least a 2:1 and a Masters in Economics, or enrolment on an economics based postgraduate course. Final year undergraduates can join the London office if they study a part time Masters, partly funded by Frontier, with evening classes twice a week. On work permits the firm is unusually direct: it instructs Fragomen LLP to assist with applications under the points based system, and says sponsorship is open to EU and non EU nationals alike. No salary is published.

The catch: The sponsorship commitment is written for the full time Analyst offer in London. Offices in Dublin, Brussels, Madrid, Paris, Berlin and Cologne recruit on their own timetables and the page does not extend the promise to them.
