Can you explain the post-study work permit and job opportunities in the UK after completing an MBA?
09 Jun 2026 · Answered by Shairal Pathak · 1 min read
After completing your MBA in the UK, you can apply for the Graduate Visa, which allows you to work or look for jobs for up to two years (18 months from 2027) without employer sponsorship. You can take any job or even start your own business. If you secure a suitable role, you can switch to a Skilled Worker Visa for a longer stay and a pathway to permanent residency.
