Can I change employers or take a second job on a Graduate Trainee visa?

The Graduate Trainee visa ties you to one sponsoring employer and the specific role described on your certificate of sponsorship. You cannot change jobs or take on a second job on this visa.

You are allowed to study and to do unpaid voluntary work for charities or voluntary organisations alongside your training role. If your career plans change and you want to work for a different employer, you would generally need to apply for a different visa category, such as the Skilled Worker route.
