Scottish Power: does its year in industry sponsor a UK visa?

No published policyYear in Industry

Unconfirmed. Scottish Power publishes no sponsorship policy for its year in industry, so we cannot state a firm answer. The Year in Industry scheme is a paid, year-long placement for undergraduates and school leavers, run in partnership with the Engineering Development Trust (EDT) and paying the Real Living Wage. Neither the ScottishPower programme page nor the wider pre-employment programmes section says anything about visa sponsorship or right-to-work requirements, so this is unpublished rather than ruled out.

The catch: Applications for the 2026/2027 round were already closed as of this check, with the next round opening in March 2027, so the cycle timing does not line up neatly with a September-start academic year.
