Leonardo UK: does its engineering, business and cyber apprenticeships sponsor a UK visa?

No published policyEngineering, Business and Cyber Apprenticeships (two to four year schemes)

Unconfirmed. Leonardo UK publishes no sponsorship policy for its engineering, business and cyber apprenticeships, so we cannot state a firm answer. Leonardo's apprenticeships page describes Engineering, Business and Cyber apprenticeships lasting two to four years for school and college leavers, across sites including Basildon, Bristol, Edinburgh, Elstree, Lincoln, Luton, Newcastle, Southampton and Yeovil. It does not mention nationality, security clearance, UK residency or visa sponsorship anywhere on the page, so the usual apprenticeship funding rules and Leonardo's defence-sector vetting should be assumed rather than confirmed.

“Apprenticeships are for typically school and college leavers looking for the next step on their career journey.”
Leonardo UK, from its own careers pages
The catch: As a defence contractor, Leonardo very likely runs security vetting on apprentice roles even though this page does not say so; nothing about eligibility is published here.
