To work for BAS, you must be eligible to live and work in the UK. BAS can only apply for a work permit in cases where there are no suitably qualified or experienced resident workers: otherwise applicants should normally be resident in the UK or a national of the European Economic Area (EU States plus Norway and Iceland).
That hardly seem to be in the spirit of global scientific endeavor...
Its employment law, sadly. From a scientific POV, we'd like to employ people based entirely on how good they are. And how much they like stoats, of course.
But it sounds worse than it is: we employ many non-EU folk, when they are the only suitably qualified candidate: it happens fairly often.
