THG: does its year in industry sponsor a UK visa?

Unconfirmed. THG publishes no sponsorship policy for its year in industry, so we cannot state a firm answer. The middle track of THG's early careers page is a 12 month year in industry, and the framing is deliberate: THG says you are not just an intern and will have the opportunity to make an impact from day one. The placement is pitched as hands on experience of a fast paced environment, developing commercial awareness before returning to university for a final year. The eligibility line is short and is about study stage rather than subject or nationality: you need to be a second year university student, and you do not need to be studying a specific degree. Placements are offered in Marketing, Ecommerce, Buying, Merchandising, Data, Procurement and Supply Chain, New Product Development and Sustainability. Finance is the one named function offering graduate and apprentice routes but not a 12 month internship. Nothing on the page addresses visas or sponsorship for the placement track, so the answer is unknown rather than no.
