SOC 2482 is an eligible occupation, but we are only 39% sure that is the right code. Rapleys is a licensed sponsor, so if the code fits, the role should qualify. Check the occupation eligibility rules against what the job actually involves.
Worth checking: this could also be SOC 4214 (Company secretaries and administrators), which is not on the eligible-occupation list. Ask Rapleys what the duties actually are.
