Essex County Council is based in Chelmsford, Essex and appears on the UK Home Office register of licensed sponsors, licensed on the Government Authorised Exchange route with a Temporary Worker (A rating) rating. That means it is legally able to issue a Certificate of Sponsorship (CoS) to an eligible overseas worker.
Essex County Council is currently advertising 15 roles we track across Braintree, Essex, Writtle, Chelmsford, Essex, Eastern England, Willows Green, Chelmsford, Chelmsford, Essex, covering SOC codes 2226, 2442, 4159. Salary information shown is taken from the employer's own advert (for example £30,000 - £39,999; £27,996 - £27,996; £60,000 - £60,000).
A sponsor licence does not guarantee an open vacancy. You still need a job offer that meets the Skilled Worker salary and skill thresholds — currently £38,700 a year or the going rate for the occupation, whichever is higher — before Essex County Council can assign you a CoS.
Apply through the employer's own careers page or the original job advert — never through a paid intermediary. Ask early and directly whether the role comes with sponsorship, and mention which route you need (Government Authorised Exchange in this case). If you are close to your visa expiry, prioritise employers already advertising, because they are far more likely to have an unused CoS allocation.
