The RULES:
Work in the UK must not be the main reason for your holiday, so you must spend no more than 12 months working.
You can take most types of work, including voluntary work, but you cannot set yourself up in or run a business, or work as a professional sportsperson. You can choose when to work and when to take your holiday breaks, but you must not work for more than a total of 12 months or you will be breaking the conditions of your stay. Note: if you were issued with a working holidaymaker visa before 8 February 2005, there are no restrictions on the amount or type of work that you are allowed to do.
So, if the company wants to employ him for more than 12 months, they will need to apply for a work permit. Though be warned it is more than a mere application, the company will have to motivate why they need to employ a foreigner as opposed to a local.
