Considering a move to London from overseas. Would love to hear success stories from anyone who’s pulled it off! What helped the most, what mistakes you learned from…

With the current economic circumstances, are people still negotiating offers? What’s on the table, salary, title, relocation money, anything?

If you can secure a visa outside of an employer, go that route. Needing sponsorship is a non-starter for a lot of places, so you’ll have a big leg up if you can get one through another route. Wages have been stagnant here for years, so it’s tough to find good salaries right now. In-house will almost certainly pay better than agencies. Relocation money likely only provided for executive leadership and up. Good luck! 🍀

Don't. Been here 5 months, don't need sponsorship. The market is TOUGH. Go to sydney

By overseas, do you mean the US? Echoing SD1, you need to have a right to work in the U.K. without sponsorship or it would be extremely difficult.

I made the move a decade+ ago and found that London agencies want to see British brands in your book, so I ended up freelancing for a year first to get my house in order.

Where from?
