This role may qualify for a Skilled Worker visa
SOC 3416 is an eligible occupation, but we are only 50% sure that is the right code. RWS Global 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 3557 (Events managers and organisers), which is not on the eligible-occupation list. Ask RWS Global what the duties actually are.
