Hi Mike,
Sponsorship would usually only be possible for roles that require specialist skills or expertise that may not be readily available in the local labour market. Unfortunately, it would be unlikely that a conductor or driver role would fall into this category.
I hope that helps and I wish you luck in your job search.
