This role may not meet Skilled Worker requirements
SOC 4131 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 3551 (Buyers and procurement officers, If purchasing decision-making and supplier negotiation were main duties). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
