This role may not meet Skilled Worker requirements
SOC 1259 is not currently on the eligible-occupation list, so a Skilled Worker visa is unlikely here. Check the occupation eligibility rules and confirm with the employer.
This could also be SOC 1150 (Managers and directors in retail and wholesale) or SOC 1257 (Hire services managers and proprietors). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
