Unconfirmed. Premier Foods publishes no sponsorship policy for its graduate schemes 2027, so we cannot state a firm answer. The minimum requirements line is short and explicit: right to work in the UK, a relevant degree and a passion for FMCG. Nothing on the page offers visa sponsorship, so an international candidate without existing right to work is outside the stated minimum.
