SOC 2452 (80% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £41,700, and ADAS 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 2151 (Conservation professionals, Heritage focus and conservation of historic environment) or SOC 2152 (Environment professionals, Environmental consultancy and planning context). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
