SOC 3532 (85% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £41,700, and OCTOPUS ENERGY GROUP 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 3534 (Financial accounts managers, Role involves managing credit risk and policies for B2B and consumer). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
