What this Engagement Delivers?

Sponsorship and immigration coordination
Sponsor licence coordination

Sponsorship requirements identified early, with employer responsibilities, documentation and specialist immigration support coordinated around the move.

Immigration route coordination

The relevant work route established with the appropriate regulated adviser where required, giving the business clarity on eligibility, sponsorship requirements and the process ahead.

Documentation and timelines

Employer and employee requirements tracked through the process, with key stages and dependencies visible before hiring and relocation dates are committed.

Relocate with confidence
Clarity before the move begins

Immigration, relocation, likely costs and practical dependencies considered together so the employee and business understand what needs to happen, and when.

Employee and family support

Practical support around housing, schooling, healthcare registration and settling-in requirements, according to the relocation support agreed.

One person keeping the move connected

Immigration specialists, employer requirements and relocation activity can create multiple handovers. Akkar keeps the wider move coordinated around the person making it.

Employment readiness and continuity
Right-to-work coordination

Required checks and documentation built into the arrival and onboarding process, helping the employer understand what needs to be completed before employment begins.

Changes, extensions and renewals

Where circumstances change after arrival, Akkar can coordinate the relevant parties and practical requirements rather than leaving the employee to restart the process alone.

Continuity beyond arrival

Support can continue through onboarding, family requirements and future mobility needs as the employee's circumstances develop.
