Sony Music UK: does its internship programme sponsor a UK visa?
Unconfirmed. Sony Music UK publishes no sponsorship policy for its internship programme, so we cannot state a firm answer. The paid, full-time, 12 month internship is London-based and spans labels and functions including Columbia Records, RCA, Ministry of Sound, Sony Music Publishing, The Orchard, finance, marketing, digital and artist relations. It is explicitly open to students, recent graduates and career changers, with eligibility framed around curiosity and enthusiasm rather than a specific degree. Applications for the 2027 programme closed on 24 August 2026 at 10am, and the announcement page makes no mention of right to work or sponsorship either way.
