SOC 2422 (85% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £45,800, and Specialist Risk Group is a licensed sponsor. That is our reading of the rules. Whether they issue a Certificate of Sponsorship is still their call.
This could also be SOC 3531 (Brokers, If the role is primarily broking/placing insurance rather than advising). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
