SOC 3552 (85% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £41,700, and Deel 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 3556 (Sales accounts and business development managers, If the role focuses on managing existing accounts rather than new business acquisition). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
