Will these people qualify as a professional referee?

Post by Manyaquestion121212 » Tue Jan 16, 2024 7:01 pm

Hi all,

1. Is an IT manager of a VAT registered company acceptable for a professional referee? He does not belong to a professional body.

2. Is a "Head of finance" of a VAT registered company acceptable for a professional referee? He does not belong to a professional body.

Thank you for your help.

I don't think either will qualify. Surprised that "Head of Finance" is not professionally qualified.
One of them may be ok for the other referee. Try and find another for the professional.
This is just my opinion as a member of this forum and does not constitute immigration advice.
Please do not send me private messages asking for advice.

manager or personnel officer of a limited company

I think the first referee falls in this category? it should be acceptable.

Sorry, i mean this director, manager or personnel officer of a VAT-registered company

'Head of finance' might be registered as Finance director,you can check it on https://www.gov.uk/government/organisat ... nies-house
