SOC 1171 (84% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £50,300, and Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board is a licensed sponsor. That is our reading of the rules. Whether they issue a Certificate of Sponsorship is still their call.
Worth checking: this could also be SOC 4141 (Office managers), which is not on the eligible-occupation list. Ask Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board what the duties actually are.
