This role may qualify for a Skilled Worker visa
SOC 2229 is an eligible occupation, but we are only 45% sure that is the right code. Conway Group is a licensed sponsor, so if the code fits, the role should qualify. Check the occupation eligibility rules against what the job actually involves.
Worth checking: this could also be SOC 3221 (Youth and community workers), which is not on the eligible-occupation list. Ask Conway Group what the duties actually are.
