BEFORE YOU ENQUIRE
No. A brief description of your business, the support you need and your timescale is enough for the first enquiry. The team will explain what is needed for any agreed work.
You can enquire about sponsor duties and continuing support. We will explain the available scope and fees. The employer remains responsible for meeting its sponsor duties.
The team will explain the proposed scope and fees before an engagement begins. Submitting this form does not commit you to paid work.
Advice is available in English and Turkish. Mention your language preference in your enquiry.
We advise businesses on sponsorship. We do not provide job vacancies or recruitment services.
Our team records whether an enquiry is relevant, progresses to agreed advice and becomes an instruction. If you allow advertising measurement, Google can measure a successful form submission using a random enquiry reference and ad-attribution information. We do not send the form’s names, contact details, business name or message to Google.
If you allow measurement, Google also receives technical visit information, such as your IP address and browser information, and can use advertising cookies. Google describes its advertising-measurement cookies as lasting 90 days. We keep ad personalisation and matching of your submitted contact details switched off.
