SOC 2494 (65% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £46,000, and Flywheel is a licensed sponsor. That is our reading of the rules. Whether they issue a Certificate of Sponsorship is still their call.
In 2025, Flywheel assigned 20 or more Certificates of Sponsorship for SOC 2494 jobs, according to the Home Office.
This could also be SOC 3554 (Advertising and marketing associate professionals). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.

Not necessarily. Flywheel holds a sponsor licence, but sponsorship for a specific hire is always the employer's decision. In 2025, Flywheel assigned 20 or more Certificates of Sponsorship for SOC 2494 jobs, according to the Home Office. Be upfront in your application that you'll require it.
The offer must clear both the general threshold and the SOC 2494 going rate of £46,000. New-entrant and shortage discounts can lower it.
