SOC 2132 (75% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £55,000, and ZENSAR TECHNOLOGIES (UK) LIMITED 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 2131 (IT project managers, Role manages CDP platform operations and IT service delivery) or SOC 2432 (Marketing and commercial managers, Heavy marketing activation and audience segmentation focus). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
