Joanne Hennessy

Jo has extensive experience of supporting UK and multinational clients from a wide range of sectors on the full A to Z of business immigration.

A trusted go-to in immigration law, her expertise includes securing and maintaining sponsor licences; identifying appropriate immigration routes for employees and securing visas; right to work compliance and navigating the time-sensitive immigration actions triggered by mergers and acquisitions.

UK immigration law is jargon heavy and the implications of getting it wrong are wide-ranging. Jo particularly enjoys working closely with clients to demystify the UK’s complex immigration rules, enabling them to confidently and compliantly manage their immigration processes in a cost-effective manner. This includes compliance training; regular legal updates; conducting mock-compliance audits and providing bespoke immigration policies and procedures for client teams. Jo and her team provide Level 1 Support on sponsor licences, with enhanced sponsor compliance back-up.
